A Family Walk which is pram/ buggy/ sling/ carrier friendly and suitable for adventurous little legs, takes you through Midsomer Norton along the appropriate walking paths through the Town Park and up to the cycle path, please note there is one quite steep hill here, which we will climb slowly and carefully. There will be various stops along the way and activities to engage the senses, such as listening to bird song, collecting autumn leaves, search and find activity sheets all based around the nature. We will go as far as Silver Street Nature Reserve before heading back to the Dragonfly Leisure Centre.
Dragonfly Leisure and South Road Carpark have free parking, plenty of space for prams and toilets with changing facilities. Please bring everything you need for your little ones for the walk, including water and snacks.
The activities are most suited for toddlers and children up to the age of 7 but families with older kids are also very welcome.
This is a completely free event but booking is essential. One ticket required per family, we will email you prior to the event to confirm how many in your group.
