Rumour has it that our friendly woodland witches are brewing up plenty of magic in the Enchanted Forest this October, embark on a journey to meet all four and take part in their whimsical games to complete your spooky trail sheet.

Pick your own home-grown Pumpkins

Hitch a lift in our tractor-trailer ride to the Pumpkin Patch where you’ll find thousands of pumpkins to choose from, including traditional carving pumpkins alongside many weird and wonderful varieties. Don’t forget to say ‘hello’ to our live-action scarecrow, capture memories at our photo opps and toast marshmallows as a seasonal treat while at the patch. 

The fang-tasic fun continues in the Mummy Maze

Our magical maze is home to a spooktacular trail game this Halloween, that’ll take you on an adventure through the winding paths. Can you navigate the twists and turns to complete the Mummy’s challenge?

Go to battle with Zombie Laser Tag

Fight for victory as two teams go to battle in an epic themed Zombie laser game. Set in a spooky woodland area that’s complete with obstacles, shelters and zombie themed elements, this is the perfect way to upgrade your Halloween. Book as an add on to your park ticket or book separately. 

Plus 40 acres of adventure play

Enjoy all of this, as well as 6 themed adventure playgrounds, interactive play throughout the park, our one-of-a-kind indoor play centre, the Playhive and MORE spooky surprises!
