Warnham Discovery Trail
The Warnham Discovery Trail follows the paths and boardwalks that surround the Millpond. Packed with information about the wildlife, flora and fauna that call Warnham 'home', you'll uncover tales from the site's history and discover a host of fun facts for adults and children alike.
Younger visitors can brush up on their wildlife skills and earn themselves a Junior Trail Detective Badge when they complete our special activity sheet.
