Vibrant Nature Photography Exhibition

Head to Winkworth to view the shortlisted images from this year's Nature Photography Competition.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Winkworth Arboretum is more than just autumn colour. Throughout the year, this woodland created by Dr Wilfrid Fox offers delight for visitors, with snowdrops and colourful camellias in winter; magnolia, cherry blossom and carpets of bluebells in spring; and candy-coloured azaleas in June. Its abundant wildlife, rolling hillsides and scenic views make it a photographer’s paradise whatever the season.

The theme this year was Vibrant Nature with categories for adults and young people ages 6 - 17 yrs. Head over to the Winter Garden where you'll find fantastic entries on the display celebrating the colour, energy and life of Winkworth.
