Discover the Exciting New Attractions at Delamere Forest This Half Term!

Delamere Forest is gearing up to offer families an unforgettable experience this May half term, thanks to the recent opening of Eddi's Hillfort, a fort-themed play area that is already making waves among visitors. Nestled amid the natural beauty of the forest, Eddi's Hillfort not only provides a brand new realm for children to explore but also pays homage to the area's rich heritage near the famed Eddisbury hill fort.

A Playground of Adventure

Equipped with two expansive play frames, a variety of slides, hammocks, bouncers, and interactive sound bells, Eddi's Hillfort promises to cater to children of all ages. Safety is paramount, as the play structures are set atop a textured surface to cushion any tumbles, while new wooden seating areas ensure parents can relax while keeping an eye on their little adventurers.

Engaging Woodland Trails

In addition to the impressive play area, Delamere Forest features beautifully revitalized woodland trails inspired by beloved children's literature. The Gruffalo trail has recently received a stunning makeover, enhancing its vibrant wooden sculptures that tell the enchanting stories of Julia Donaldson. Young explorers will delight in encountering characters such as snake, mouse, owl, and of course, the Gruffalo himself as they navigate through the wonders of the forest.

Magical Experiences Await

For those seeking even more adventure, the new Room on the Broom Trail offers a magical quest where children can assist a witch in finding her lost items while collecting spell ingredients. With fun activities, intriguing forest facts, and a sprinkle of woodland magic, this trail promises to be a captivating journey for the entire family. Trail packs are available for a nominal fee, providing children with memorabilia to enhance their experience.
