May Half Term Wildlife Trail

Burn off some energy and learn about the great outdoors this half term with a teddy bear wildlife activity trail.

  • Booking not needed
  • Admission applies

Bring the kids and their favourite teddy bear to meet a special cast of local wildlife along our new sculpture trail. Children will complete fun, simple activities and learn about each animal and the important role they play in keeping the Downs thriving.

The trail will take about 30-40 minutes and is based along our multi-user, accessible pathway which goes across our kite field and through a woodland area.

While you're here, enjoy some kite flying and our café in the visitor centre, which has a range of hot and cold drinks and delicious treats.
