Children’s Literary Trail
This story walk is a half kilometre trail with three themed areas to explore and discover. It is suitable for strollers.
First the Hobbit House then over the troll bridge to the Secret Garden and finally in the olive grove: elephants, tiger and zebra of the Jungle Book stories.
As you walk around the trail there are many things to engage the imagination and enchant the eye. Birds are everywhere at Carrick Hill: black & white cockatoos, parrots, herons, ducks and maggies.
(located on the perimeter of Carrick Hill – opening times apply)
