About

Can you quack the clues this Easter?

Join us for a family day out of exploration and discovery that will put all of your senses to the test. To succeed as a Wetland Detective and complete our Easter trail, you'll need to get closer than ever to nature.

It's time to investigate underwater mysteries. Follow tracks to work out who's been creeping around at night. And use everything from feathers to bird calls to animal poo (honestly!) to reveal the wildlife secrets only a true Wetland Detective knows.

Once you've revealed nature's hidden secrets on our trail, put your new found detective skills to the test and discover more about our wonderful wetlands with activities such as pond dipping and mini-beast hunting.

If you think you're ready for the challenge, you know where to find us.
