Easter Art and Nature Hunt

Easter Art and Nature Hunt

Pick up a trail sheet from the Information Desk and challenge yourself to see or take part in as many activities as you can.

Find 4 trail points and return to the Information Desk, The Weston or any of our cafés to collect a chocolate treat (available 5–22 April, subject to availability).

Enjoy a walk through the Formal Gardens and down to the lake. Pop into The Weston or the Chapel to see our latest exhibitions. Stroll through the Country Park on your journey back to the YSP Centre.

Don’t worry if you don’t find everything today, come back and visit again.

What is it like underfoot? Gravel and grassy paths with inclines. The ground can get muddy in wet weather. All indoor spaces have flat access throughout.
