Dawn Chorus
Join our family friendly dawn chorus walk to learn about birdsong and enjoy the historic landscape of Temple Newsam.
Our dawn chorus walk will focus on using bird song to identify mostly woodland and parkland birds. We’ll likely spot other wildlife on our stroll and you’ll have the opportunity to watch our historic estate wake up and come to life.
The walk finishes in the courtyard where a full English breakfast will be served at 9am in the cafe. Breakfast is pre-ordered, and a variety of options are available to cater for differing requirements.
Key information:
