Wildlife Walk: The Trees of the Medieval Park
12 October 2024
This year we are delighted to offer two Trees Walks in Haddon Medieval Park.
The Medieval Park at Haddon Hall is a rare treasure, comprising 187 hectares of organic ancient pasture, woodlands, water meadows and river banks. Largely untouched for over 900 years with a diverse range of habitats, it is home to an incredible variety of wildlife. The trees are the heart of the parkland landscape, and many are veteran examples, having provided a continuity of habitat for centuries. Each one provides a home for a myriad of birds, small animals and insects, as well as fungi and lichen.
In these exclusive events our expert guides will take you behind the scenes into the private parkland that surrounds Haddon Hall. For 2-3 hours, walking at a gentle pace with plenty of opportunities for observation and photography, they will escort you around the different woodland areas within the Medieval Park to discover and appreciate Haddon’s trees and their associated wildlife.
