Welcome to How Hill

How Hill is a beautiful nature reserve located in the heart of the Norfolk Broads. It is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who come to enjoy the stunning scenery and abundance of wildlife. The reserve is home to a variety of habitats, including marshes, reed beds, and woodland, which provide a home for a wide range of species. Visitors can explore the reserve on foot, by boat, or by bike, and there are plenty of opportunities to spot rare birds, insects, and mammals.

One of the highlights of How Hill is the famous windmill, which dates back to the 19th century. The windmill is a popular attraction for visitors, who can climb to the top and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The mill is still in working order and is used to grind flour, which is sold in the on-site shop. There are also a number of other historic buildings on the site, including a thatched cottage and a boathouse, which provide a fascinating glimpse into the area's past.

For those who love the great outdoors, How Hill is the perfect destination. The reserve is home to a number of walking and cycling trails, which take visitors through some of the most beautiful parts of the Norfolk Broads. There are also a number of boat trips available, which allow visitors to explore the waterways and see the wildlife up close. Whether you're a keen birdwatcher, a nature lover, or simply looking for a peaceful retreat, How Hill is a must-visit destination in Norfolk.
