Bluebells in Bloom- Family Trail
Join our family trail around the arboretum and learn some amazing facts about these bountiful blooms.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
In April and May, Winkworth transforms into a violet as swathes of sweet-smelling bluebells come into a bloom. With the arrival of warmer days, these fragile blooms awaken, drawing sustenance from the sun’s golden rays that grace the woodland floor before the trees above cast their leafy shadows. Wander along Winkworth many winding pathways and you’ll find bluebells everywhere but be sure not to miss their fine displays in bluebell wood.*
Follow the sensory trail across the lower arboretum and through Bluebell Wood.
*dates are subject to change depending on when the Bluebells bloom.
