Thomas’s Trail is a new family nature trail in Grin Low Woods, Buxton Country Park, created by Buxton Civic Association (BCA) in partnership with the Thomas Theyer Foundation.

The trail explores the Animals of Buxton: Past & Present, from prehistoric creatures to the wildlife that lives in Buxton today.

Pick up your Thomas’s Trail Booklet from the Outdoor Opera House welcome desk and follow the woodland route to discover 13 illustrated animal discs suspended from trees with a 14th bonus disc to find if you wish!

Complete the trail and receive a Thomas’s Trail sticker from the welcome desk. A fun reward for young explorers! Most families complete it in 45–60 minutes.

The Thomas Trail is free during Outdoor Opera House between Friday 31 July – Monday 3 August (usual price £2 per trail booklet or free with your Poole’s Cavern Tour Entry Ticket).
