Woodland fairy trail at Gibside this Christmas

Discover the secrets of the woodland fairies at Gibside.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

The gardeners at Gibside keep losing tools and misplacing plant pots. That can only mean one thing - the mischievous fairies are back! Help them discover clues on a journey through the woodland. Follow the activity sheet and explore secret nooks to uncover their magical winter world. Find toadstool seats for impish elves and the miniature homes of playful pixies. If you truly believe in magic, you might just capture a glimpse of the enchanted creatures hiding in the woodlands.

Free, normal admission applies.
