The magic of water… A million gallons of crystal clear spring water gushes from a hillside every day – the foundation of all life in Kilnsey for over a thousand years.
Meet the animals… The first thing you will notice is all of the wildlife wandering freely around the Park. Goats in the air, pigs down below – you’ll see ducks, geese, hens and guinea fowl everywhere you go.
Distinctly Dales… meet red squirrels and the UK’s rarest wildflower. Learn about local butterflies and our honeybees.
Fish… watch the water boil as you feed our giant rainbow trout. Learn about how we produce the finest quality rainbow trout. Watch the fish being traditionally smoked over wood chippings.
All year round… Seasonal events treasure trails mean that there’s always something new for children to discover on each visit.
