A nature-themed Halloween experience is coming to Martin Mere this October half-term.
The 'Super Natural' event, designed especially for younger children, promises a scare-free adventure through wetlands, wildlife and autumn folklore.
Running from Saturday, October 24 to Sunday, November 1, the event will take place at the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) Martin Mere Wetland Centre in Burscough.
A spokesperson for WWT Martin Mere said: "Families can swap the spooky for a SUPER Natural Halloween adventure at WWT Martin Mere this October half term.
"This unmissable week-long event invites families to discover the wonders, wildlife and folklore of wetlands through a programme of hands-on activities and seasonal fun."
Visitors will receive a Super Natural logbook to guide them on a self-led journey through nature-inspired activities and autumn wildlife discoveries.
Each day from 12pm to 3pm, activities will take place in the Mere Tun Viking Village, including willow wand-making, marshland potion-mixing and owl pellet-examining.
Guests can also join a fungi hunt and step into a fairy mushroom ring.
The spokesperson said: "SUPER Natural offers a scare-free way to celebrate Halloween, encouraging families to get outdoors, explore nature and uncover the nature-bursting and mood-boosting superpowers of wetlands."
