A diverse woodland where the existing trails have been developed to create a series of magical trails through Pomeroy Forest, featuring 18 nature-based sculptures that can be used as an interactive play experience, and an immersive nature trail that showcases the flora and fauna of the forest. The Renardine trail made up of a Nursery Trail (1km) and a Fairytale Trail (2.2km) is now a children’s magical storybook adventure trail with iconic sculptures, interactive fun/art pieces and natural inclusive play areas.
