Henry the Heron's Riverbank Self-Led Trail

For our river-themed summer, celebrate the river Wandle and learn about the river's inhabitants with some active play parts.

  • Booking not needed

Follow a family‑friendly trail with Henry the Heron who will teach all about the water birds, fish and invertebrates that call the Wandle their home! Follow the sheet and map to discover all the trail points. Lift the flaps to discover more and play with a few extra games along the route.

Trail sheets are £2, available to pick up from the Garden Centre and cafes.

Perfect for curious minds of all ages, this adventure is a great way to enjoy nature and support Morden Hall Park.

All proceeds help care for the park, keeping it beautiful for everyone, forever.
