Gruffalo party trail at Cardinham Woods

The Gruffalo Party Trail at Cardinham Woods

2024 is The Gruffalo’s 25th birthday year and to celebrate, everyone is invited to take part in a brand-new forest adventure, available  until 5 January 2025.

What to expect

The interactive family trail features all sorts of party-themed activities and games, along with fun facts to teach you about life in the forest for the Gruffalo and other creatures.
