Seasonal audio trail downloads

 

Each season you can download an audio trail to accompany one of our seasonal trails. Details of these seasonal trails and the routes are found in the free seasonal guide received on arrival or available from the Great Oak Hall.

Each seasonal trail stop has its own corresponding audio recording.

Winter 2008

This winter the audio recordings accompany the Silk Wood seasonal trail - you can download a route map. On each you can discover more about Silk Wood and the remarkable stories behind some of its trees from expert Simon Toomer, Westonbirt's Curator.
