What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors appreciate the natural beauty and unique conservation efforts at Paradise Fields Wetlands, particularly the Ealing Beaver Project and the views towards Wembley. However, some reviews mention concerns about litter and trail maintenance, suggesting a need for improved upkeep.
"I used to come to nature conservation park in the past, and loved it. I went cycling this Sunday and I was very disappointed with its condition. There was rubbish everywhere. There were hardly any bins and just some bags overloaded with rubbish hanging from posts. If it were a hot day I would understand but by late February, that us a sign of neglect. In addition, many routes were blocked due to broken trips even the storm that caused this was 9 days ago. Very disappointing!"
