Sign your little nature detectives up for five days of fun exploring the grounds of Hopetoun House. 10-1pm every day, they will join the rangers and find out about mini-beasts, mammals, birds and other wildlife through games, activities and fun surveys. Each day will have a different theme, ranging from a Minibeast safari to exploring the seashore.
Taking place on the last Sunday of the month, the ranger led walk will lead you through the nature and history of Hopetoun's designed landscape and serves to compliment the tour offered inside of the House.
