View at Riverside

Riverside Country Park is an excellent site for Winter birdwatching.

Situated alongside the Medway Estuary at Gillingham, the park is made up of many different habitats, including ponds, reedbed and grassland.

There is plenty of green space for walking, picnics, and children to play - making it a great place to visit for a fun day out.

The park offers good and accessible viewpoints from where you can look out over the North Kent Marshes.

  • Electric scooters are allowed on 'access for all' areas that are surfaced but not on 'pedestrian only' areas
  • The nearest train station is Gillingham (3 miles).

Riverside Country Park is managed by Medway Council (link opens in a new window).
