A Winter’s Trail at Skelton Grange Environment Centre
Catch a glimpse into the secret world of the little folk who reside here in this festive celebration of light in our darkest month.
Join us for candlelit trail in the woods and gardens at Skelton Grange Environment Centre and get a sneak peek at the illuminated miniature villages along the way. Who lives in these tiny homes at Skelton Grange?
You can explore the trail at your own pace, and towards the end take time to enjoy the festive campfires and hot drinks in the woods. You will also be given a winter craft activity to take home with you.
A great event for all, and especially popular with younger children; we created this annual fundraising event as a calmer, more intimate alternative to the larger winter experiences available in the area. We limit numbers to keep the event more peaceful and allow time to explore the trail.
It’s the event that we wished that we could have taken our children to when they were young! A Winter’s Trail has been described as magical and awe-inspiring, with many people returning year after year. We hope you will be one of them!
Previous visitors have said:
“It was awesome! 🙂 So intricate and so well thought out. Loved the hobbit house and the fire afterwards. We also thought it was brilliant for adults as well as children!”
“I came last night to the winter wonderland with my great-nephew. I just wanted to say well done for creating such a magical trail with so much interest for little people. The singing and hot chocolate round the fire at the end was so lovely.”
Tickets are £10 per person.
Tickets include:
🧙Candlelit trail.
☕A hot drink and snack to eat around the campfire.
👀A seasonal craft activity to take home.
