Description

Spring is the time for newborn lambs, including Calke's own flock of rare breed Portland sheep.

Follow Peggy the Portland on this year's Easter trail, discovering 10 different spots with spring-themed activities and games at each. With a longer parkland trail for older explorers and a shorter, accessible trail in the Stableyards and Pleasure Grounds, there's lots of fun to be had celebrating spring with family and friends. Spring crafts will also be available in the Riding School on select days, including the Easter weekend.

There's a choice of two trails to pick from: 

- The long trail takes you around the Parkland and Calke Explore, where you can have a go at different activities, from an egg hunt to racing.  

- The shorter, accessible trail is suitable for little legs, exploring the Pleasure Grounds and Stableyards, where you can join Peggy playing some fun easter games.

£3.50 per trail which includes an Easter trail sheet, bunny ears and dairy or vegan/Free From* chocolate egg. Eggs must be collected from the finish point by 5pm.

*Suitable for people with milk, egg, gluten, peanut and tree nut allergies. 

Please note that normal admission prices apply.
