About the event

Hedgehogs may still be in hibernation this half-term, but our prickly friends are back at Snipe Dales with lots of fascinating facts about the UK's favourite mammal.

Grab a leaflet from the rack on the wall near the snipe wings artwork, and start looking for your first hedgehog board as you set off on your walk. Check you haven't passed one already!

The boards for this trail are all positioned along the main track for accessibility, and within a fairly short stretch to make it more manageable for little legs and February weather! There are plenty of options to make completing it part of a longer circular route should you wish. Please be aware that even this surfaced path can get muddy so wellies are recommended, as well as an all-terrain pushchair or carrier if needed. The trail is within the country park area of Snipe Dales, not the nature reserve, so dogs on leads are welcome.

This is a free self-guided trail, open to all. Please bring £1 cash for the car park machine. There are toilets in the car park area.
