Enjoy a hands-on outdoor adventure this summer with stream dipping, mini raft racing and a scenic family walk to the Wash Pool.

Families can follow the trail from Quarry car park down to the Wash Pool, where the team will be waiting with stream dipping equipment and fun activities for children to enjoy.

The Wash Pool is just over a mile from Quarry car park, around a 30-minute leisurely walk. Families are welcome to start from the car park at any time, but it is worth allowing extra time for younger children. The Wash Pool is also a lovely spot for a picnic.
