The children have loved visiting some of the Gruffalo Trails and it’s the perfect way to spend an afternoon as a family, but did you know that some of the Foresty England places are currently offering a Zog Trail, alongside the Gruffalo ones.
Each year they seem to offer a new trail, last year it was Superworm, which the Zog Trail has replaced, and added a few more locations too.
If you are not familiar with the Zog story, also by Julia Donaldson, you can grab a copy HERE
The Zog activity trail can be found at 26 of the nation’s forests across England and with lots of fun activities to complete, the new self-led trail will encourage children to become superheroes of the forest themselves.
