Can you find all the butterflies hiding around the arboretum?

This summer, young explorers are invited to take part in The Big Batsford Butterfly Hunt. Search for butterflies along the route and learn more about these beautiful pollinators as you journey through the arboretum.

Children taking part will receive a trail map from the Admissions Desk to guide them on their adventure, and there’s a small prize waiting at the end!

£3 per participating child, plus normal arboretum admission

With plenty to discover along the way, it’s a fantastic family activity to enjoy during the summer holidays!
