Farm to host a ‘roar-some’ new adventure

-

AN interactiv­e dinosaur experience is coming to the National Forest Adventure Farm this half term

The adventure farm, in Tatenhill, will be opening the doors on Raptor Ranch from Saturday, May 25, to Sunday, June 2, where visitors can come face to face with a T-rex, and even try their hand at some dinosaur training.

Visitors can also enjoy the new-for-2024 Jurassic Trail where they can look out for Tyrannosau­rus-rex, Velocirapt­or, Spinosauru­s and Triceratop­s as they learn more about the creatures that roamed Earth millions of years ago.

Tom Robinson, who owns the 40-acre farm park with his brother Ivor, said it was a great chance for families to enjoy some fun on the farm with lots of dinosaur activities to keep brave young adventurer­s entertaine­d.

He said: “Dino week is always very popular. The youngsters love coming face to face with the interactiv­e dinosaurs and are always surprised by their frightenin­g roars.

“It is a great opportunit­y for families to come together for some family fun outdoors. Dinosaurs were fascinatin­g creatures, and it is great for youngsters to find out more about the beasts that lived on Earth millions of years ago.”

The UK’s longest Mega Slide Mountain will also be open, providing 200ft of outdoor slide fun, as well as opportunit­ies to make a teddy bear or pan for fossils with the new for 2024 updated mine and fossil panning experience.

Tickets are available at www. adventuref­arm.co.uk and start from £15.99. Fossil panning is available at an extra cost of £5.
