We also have an adventure playground and extra activities during school holidays and weekends, which may include duck racing, tractor rides, raptor trail, and ferret racing.
As an outdoor attraction we recommend that all our visitors dress according to the weather forecast. Although the majority of pathways are tarmac we also recommend that visitors wear footwear appropriate for walking on unmade tracks and grassed areas.
