The Gruffalo Trail
Discover the magic of the Deep Dark Wood with this self-led trail. Search for the beautiful hand-crafted carvings of much-loved characters from Julia Donaldson’s bestselling picture book, The Gruffalo. The trail takes you through beautiful woodland landscapes at Thorndon North, providing the opportunity for children to run, play, kick through the leaves and let imaginations run free. It provides some excellent photo opportunities.
Walking and running
Natural but clearly marked paths traverse Thorndon North’s beautiful woodlands and Thorndon South’s open parkland. The Old Thorndon Pastures that link the South and North offer views as far as London. Many walks will pass fenced grazing animals, such as rare breed sheep, goats and cattle.
Pebble Walk
The pebbles at Thorndon Country Park’s old gravel pit have had a long and eventful history, providing evidence of massive global climate changes. Pick up a leaflet in the Countryside Centre located at Thorndon North.
