Once full, the Pumpkin Passport can been redeemed for a prize.

The popular Terror Tunnel and storytelling will also be back.

Halloween Trail

Follow the path through the Wilderness Gardens to find all the wooden Halloween sculptures and characters along the way.

Decorated Pumpkin Competition

Bring a decorated pumpkin with you and place it in the ‘Pumpkin Parking’ patch on your way into the gardens.

A judge will award a prize to the visitor with the best decorated pumpkin at the end of each session.

There will be two age categories, under-6 and six and over. Whilst parental help is appreciated, judges prefer to see pumpkins decorated by children themselves.
