Celebrate the magic of autumn with a series of family-friendly activities inspired by nature’s harvest. From hedgehog spotting and fungi adventures to pumpkin painting and seasonal crafts, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Join us outdoors this October to explore, create, and discover the wonders of wildlife together.

With Gang of Elk leading the sessions, each day has different activities, please ensure you book the correct date when purchasing your ticket.

25th October - Funghi Spotting Adventures:  Go on a mushroom treasure hunt with your own nature checklist, then get crafty making adorable eggbox mushrooms to take home! End the activity gathered around the crackling campfire, toasting hotdogs and gooey s’mores for a tasty autumn treat.
