Beskrivning
Rainham Marshes protects 411 hectares of ancient, low-lying grazing marsh in the Thames Estuary.

Although most of the reserve is open water or wet grazing, there are also small areas of woodland. It attracts a wide range of water fowl and some passerines. brun kärrhök are usually present.

JaExtra information
The visitor centre has information, a shop and a cafe. There are elevated views across some of the reserve. An admission fee is charged to non-members of the RSPB. There are fixed opening and closing times.
It's worth venturing onto the river wall and viewing the riverside - there's a one-way gate.
At present (October 2022), repairs are in progress to the boardwalk and it's not possible to complete a circuit of the reserve.
