The Gruffalo Trail with Forestry England - Hamsterley, Kielder, Guisborough Forest.
Download the App for free and Join in with this interactive trail. You can also purchase a bag with extra activities in for £4 Open Now! The trail will likely change at some point this year. You can also find The Wallace & Gromit trail at Kielder forest which is dog and family friendly but don't follow the OS Maps because its wrong. You can purchase a bag for £5 with an activity pack and pencil but you don't need to buy one to do the trail.
