Spring Family Trail at Westonbirt Arboretum

A fun family spring trail at Westonbirt Arboretum where children can discover wildlife, take part in activities, and collect hidden images along the way.

This spring, families are invited to explore Westonbirt Arboretum on the Best Kept Secrets family trail. The trail takes visitors on a journey through the arboretum to discover wildlife and seasonal changes in nature. Along the way, children can enjoy interactive activities such as spotting the changing colours of horse chestnut flowers, learning about creatures living in moss, and trying a bee dance. Visitors can collect a leaflet and trail map from the Welcome Building, then look out for rubbing plaques at each trail stop to reveal hidden images. The trail is free after admission and is located in dog-friendly Silk Wood. It is suitable for families with children aged 6+
