Photofinders Trail

Explore the Boardwalk this half term and test your powers of observation with our brand new 'Photofinders' Trail. At the end you can tally up your points and discover if you are as keen-eyed as a kestrel!

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

The trail is suitable for all ages; younger children can seek out all the photo locations on the trail sheet, while older children, teens and adults will enjoy the photo challenges along the way. Maybe you will snap a spider's web or photograph a friend or family member getting close to nature? At the end of the trail, why not drop into the Docky Hut Cafe so you can warm up with a hot chocolate and take a look at your photos?

In frosty weather we may have to close the Boardwalk. If there is a cold spell, we recommend calling the Visitor Centre on 01353 720274 before starting your journey.
