Family friendly things to do
A visit to Kedleston Hall is well worth it at any time of the year however during the spring you can see newborn lambs take their first steps and primula and bluebells blanket the forest floors.
Rolling hills and miles of woodland surround the Hall and with more birds coming out to say hello, it’s the perfect setting for a stroll with family. Here are a few suggestions of what you could do.
Wildlife spotting
Head out on an adventure around the parkland. Life is everywhere and the lake is a perfect location to look out for nesting birds and is home to herons, coots and swans.
Orienteering
A fun way to explore the parkland at Kedleston is the orienteering course - suitable for families, friends, dog walkers and ideal for complete beginners. A popular year-round activity for visitors of all ages, you can choose from a 1.5 mile route or a three mile version.
Buy a map from the shop or Visitor Reception Building (£1.50) and go searching for marked points across the park. You can run it, jog it, or stroll - you set the pace.
