Tinkley Robin's Winter Forage Trail

With artwork from renowned artist Trevor Waugh, join us this winter for a free trail around the red route at Tinkley Gate, where you can explore more about how robins use this space to nest and find sources of food.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

This winter, join us at Tinkley Gate to follow the story of the Tinkley robin.

Our resident robin wakes up one day feeling a bit hungry, and explores our red route for something to eat – only it’s not always that simple in winter. In this trail, you'll find out more about how we can all help support wildlife during the colder months.

Featuring artwork by internationally renowned fine artist Trevor Waugh, the trail starts at the Tinkley Gate café and follows our red route, which takes around 30 minutes to follow, and has some short sections of slope both up and down.

This is a free trail, and no booking is necessary.
