Behind the Corral at our Garden Centre you'll find a looping nature trail, that you can easily walk in 10 minutes or less. The brochure available at the trail (shown in part below) tells the story of what you find along the trail. Great for kids to just run through and have fun, or for teachers to take a school class through to learn about our native woodlands.

You'll start on the Corral Nature Trail, with 8 numbered stops, plus we've added the Octopus Spruce Trail with six more stops, called OS1, OS2, etc. You can take that trail as a side trip if you want (the Octopus Spruce tree is pretty cool, and huge!)
