Om
Hurtige fakta: A remarkable ancient roadway made from thousands of oak planks runs beneath the visitor centre, showcasing exquisite Iron Age engineering. Visitors can explore carefully preserved wooden trackways that once crossed boggy lands.
Højdepunkter: The centre reveals a full-scale reconstruction of a 2,000-year-old trackway built with over 300 massive oak trunks, some weighing up to 120 kilograms each. You can almost feel the scale and effort involved as you walk alongside the recreated timber pathway amid recreated peat bog landscapes.
Insidertips
- Wear sturdy, comfortable shoes as some paths around the bog are uneven.
- Bring a camera for detailed close-ups of the wooden structures and wildlife.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer a quieter experience with more space to explore.
- Don’t miss the interactive displays that explain the construction techniques and historical context.
