Thompson Water and the common form an SSSI managed by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust. It's a particularly important area for dragonflies and damselflies.

The Pingo Trail is an 8 mile hike around Thompson Common which takes in the delights of the ice age pools known as pingos. As the ground froze, water underneath froze to create little hills. When the ice melted the earth dropped back down and created the pingos. They are usually found in places such as Greenland and Alaska so it is an interesting and unique place to visit.

An excellent bomb hole a few 100 meters off Peddars Way. It is worth the slight detour to get to. Watch out for the tree at the bottom, but otherwise a fairly comfortably bomb hole!

Langmere is a lake that performs something of a magic trick. Every year, it’'s water level can fluctuate by several metres. Sometimes you’ll see it — other times, you won’t. The mere rises and falls in harmony with underground water levels, which change during the seasons. You can observe lots of wildlife around the mere, especially birds. Keep a look-out for bird species including coot, curlew, snipe, teal and more.

East Wretham Heath is a nature reserve that's home to many rare species of plant and insect. Scarce breeding birds such as woodlark and redstart can be observed here, as can stone curlews. The grassland was purchased by Norfolk Wildlife Trust at the start of the Second World War, making it the oldest Breckland nature reserve.
