Event Description

Get ready for a colourful outdoor adventure that will awaken all your senses! Explore the Ecology Centre and discover nature through sight, smell, touch and listening as we follow a rainbow nature trail, feel nature's textures, listen for birdsong and create our own scented 'cocktails'.
