Perfect for 4-8 year olds, the concept behind the Clubs is that your child will get a bundle of goodies to excite them about their forthcoming Trail experience, something to keep them entertained whilst travelling to and from the Trail, and something to be given on completion of the Trail as a keepsake.

Please Note:
Along this Trail route, you will also have the opportunity to visit the lost village of Tyneham, where time stopped in 1943 when it was evacuated during the Second World War. Due to the proximity of the local firing range, the village is subject to restricted opening hours and it is open mainly during weekends and public holidays.
