The Dragon has escaped from the castle dungeon and is hiding the castle’s jewels in his lair. The jewels give the dragon energy for his fire breathing mischief. Knights of Dunstable Downs must find the dragon and return the jewels to the castle treasure chest. The king’s seer has foretold that the dragon is somewhere deep in it’s cave and that retrieving the jewels will be no easy feat.

Before you begin, you will need a sword to take with you. The more creative you are, the more protective it will be on your quest!

The trail takes place between Saturday 25th October and Sunday 2nd November, from 10:30am to 4pm, with last entry at 3:30pm.

Admission fee: Prices are £3 per trail which includes the sword craft and trail. No booking required.
