Be Prepared
  • Clothes & Footwear - Some activities are outside, so please dress warmly and bring outdoor clothing and footwear suitable for a wet woodland trail.
  • Costumes - we love it when people dress up so why not go the whole hog and add to the atmosphere. Didn't have time for a costume? Don't worry, pop into our gift shop and purchase a spooky mask or costume.
