Hide & Treat Halloween Hunt – Halloween Trail

Do you dare to seek out our fang-tastic friends for a spookilious treat? We’ve hidden some specially made Halloween Neddies around the sanctuary, but which of these fang-tastic friends is hidden where? Follow our Halloween Hunt to find the secret hiding spots of our Neddies hidden around the sanctuary and see if you can match which Neddie is hiding in which Halloween hideout. This spooktacular activity combines family fun, exercise and brainpower and is just £5 per trail, including a treat on completion. Head to the Gift Shop to pick up a trail sheet and you’re ready to start your Halloween hunt. Plus with a new play area, daily talks, scenic walks, engaging exhibits, award-winning gardens and, of course, hundreds of adorable donkeys to meet, there’s so much to explore with your own herd, whatever the weather. Friendly dogs on leads are welcome too! Take sanctuary in our Taste of the West award-winning restaurant, The Kitchen, and enjoy fresh, local, seasonal produce while soaking in the unparalleled coast and country views. Breakfasts, lunches and tempting afternoon treats are dished up daily, with every penny of profit helping donkeys and mules around the world. Before heading home, browse our Gift Shop at leisure in the knowledge that every purchase goes towards helping donkeys in need. Packed with unique donkey-design items and souvenirs, you will find something for everyone. Make the day your own, but above all else, fall in love with our herds of donkeys. From humble beginnings as a UK rescue mission 50 years ago, The Donkey Sanctuary has grown into one of the world’s largest equine welfare charities. General admission and parking at the sanctuary are FREE (donations welcome). Dogs on leads are welcome. All proceeds help fund the work of The Donkey Sanctuary Worldwide.
