About

This Easter holiday, young explorers are invited to discover the magic of the season on Pensthorpe's Spring Safari Nature Trail, running from 7th – 13th April.

Spring is one of the most exciting times in nature, with wildlife emerging, plants beginning to bloom and the reserve coming alive with colour and activity. Our Spring Safari trail invites children and families to explore the reserve and uncover the fascinating changes happening in nature at this special time of year.

On arrival, explorers will receive their Spring Safari handout before setting off across the reserve to find a series of trail boards filled with fascinating facts, interactive challenges and seasonal discoveries.

To help adventurers look a little closer, every paying child will receive their very own magnifying glass, perfect for investigating the tiny wonders of spring – from insects and minibeasts to plants and natural textures along the trail. The magnifying glass is theirs to keep so the adventure can continue at home.

Dates: 7th – 13th April
Location: Pensthorpe Natural Park
Activity: Spring Safari Nature Trail
Included: Explorer trail sheet and magnifying glass for each paying child
