Family Fun Pumpkin Trail

Saturday 24th October - Sunday 1st November 2026

The Pumpkins Have Escaped!

Get ready for a spooktacular family adventure at Sherborne Castle & Gardens this October half term!

Our brand-new and extended 2026 Family Pumpkin Trail is bigger, better and full of Halloween fun.

Cheeky pumpkins have escaped and are hiding throughout the gardens – can you follow the clues, track them down and find them all? Put your best detective skills to the test and don’t forget… fancy dress is very much welcome!

Every young adventurer who completes the trail will receive a special prize!
Come along, explore and enjoy a fang-tastic family day out!

Pumkin Trail So lovely to see genuinely happy children, who left absolutely exhausted with great prizes. Thoroughly recommend the pumpkin trail for all ages. S.Smith Bournemouth
