Symondsbury Summer Explorer Trail

Looking for a family-friendly adventure in the Dorset National Landscape this summer?

Head to Symondsbury Estate and follow the Summer Explorer Trails, a nature-filled journey designed to get children outdoors, exploring and discovering the wonders of the countryside.

Armed with an Explorer Trail Booklet, young adventurers can uncover fascinating trees, spot wildlife and complete fun challenges along the way.

Keep watch for the trail’s hidden bumble bee too. Children who find it can claim a special surprise reward.
