Nature Packs
Be a nature detective for the day and let your imagination run wild when you borrow one of our free Nature Packs from the Welcome Building.

With the help of a Nature Pack, children (and adults alike) can get up close to creepy crawlies, head to the bird hide and listen out for the different songs of woodland birds or maybe make a den and play for the rest of the day. Be sure to return the packs to our friendly team at the Welcome Building so that other people can enjoy them when they visit.
