FREE Kids Trick or Treat Trail!
Join us at our spooktacular FREE Kids Trick or Treat Trail! We are bubbling with excitement as we transform a section of the Dave Kerwin Trail, stretching over approximately 1 kilometer, from a bone-chilling haunted Halloween theme to a delightfully fun and safe experience for children of all ages to enjoy. You won't want to miss out on this frightfully amazing event, where kids can come dressed in their finest Halloween costumes and immerse themselves in the whimsical atmosphere surrounded by ghoulishly delightful decorations, lively animatronics, and captivating actors adorned in incredible costumes. This unforgettable experience is the perfect opportunity for children under 10 and their families to kickstart their trick-or-treating adventure in a wonderfully festive and secure setting.
