Easter Holiday Fun – Adventure Trails


Continuing with my suggestions for Easter Holiday outings, today I’m recommending a few fun trails to follow.

Groombridge Place Gardens and the Enchanted Forest, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, adults from £8.95, children from £7.45, family of 4 from £29.95 (slightly higher charges apply event days and Bank Holidays. Follow a woodland trail, discovering models, activities and play areas along the way. We love the raised wooden boardwalk that weaves through the woods, the Blue Pool with its exotic plants and Dinosaur and Dragon Valley. In addition to this fun trail, you can take a short boat ride on the canal, stroll round the formal gardens and visit the Conan Doyle museum. Lots of opportunity to use up all that extra energy!

Dinosaur Adventure, Lenwade, Norwich, from March to September admission is £10.95 for adults and £15.95 for children. Walk through the woods on the lookout for dinosaurs (you will find them), and then visit some live creatures at the Secret Animal Garden. For a small extra charge you can also take a safari through the deer park. Play a game of Jurassic Putt, a fun crazy golf course, and allow the kids to let off steam in the adventure play area. My son loved the 23 metre climb-a-saurus – we ‘lost’ him in there for ages.

Bewilderwood, Wroxham, Norfolk, admission charges depend on height varying between £10.50 and £12.50, although under those under 3ft are free and over 65’s are charged just £8.50. Though we’ve not actually been there ourselves as yet, this has been highly recommended. A feast of outdoor adventure including treehouses, zip wires, bridges, boat trips and marsh walks. Apparently you get to meet Crocklebogs, Twiggles and Boggles – let me know how you get on.
