Four Worcestershire National Trust venues will host egg trails this upcoming Easter bank holiday weekend.

Croome, The Firs, Greyfriars, and Hanbury Hall, along with 195 others across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, will be running trails during the Easter holidays.

Every trail has been designed with families in mind, and each features 10 activity stations celebrating the start of spring, from bursting buds and displays of daffodils in bloom to leaping lambs and the song of sprightly birds.

Each trail ends with a chocolate egg reward, or a vegan ‘Free-From’ chocolate egg, made here in the UK using cocoa from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms.

In Croome, visitors young and old can participate in a trail packed with nature-inspired activities, ranging from taking part in a collective Easter art project to spin the wheel at the interactive weather station, along with a sweet reward waiting for them at the finish.

Each trail has a £3 entry, and includes an Easter trail sheet, bunny ears, and a choice of egg.

The trail will run from Saturday, March 23 to Sunday, April 7, between 10am and 5pm.

The Firs, legendary Worcestershire composer Edward Elgar's first home, is inviting children to a toddler-friendly Easter trail with activity highlights that include an egg-and-spoon race, planting sunflower seeds and musical instruments.

The event will take place from Friday, March 29 to Monday, April 8, on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays from 10am to 5pm.

Worcester, Greyfriars offers a trail for those spending the day in Worcester.

The trail at this late-medieval house and walled garden unfolds within the heart of the city and runs from March 26 to April 1, excluding March 31.

Seeking respite from the city's hustle and bustle, families can complete the trail and receive their choice of sweet rewards for £3.

Hanbury Hall brings folklore and traditions to life with activities such as Morris dancing and wheelbarrow races from March 23 to April 7, from 9am to 4pm.

All four venues offer National Trust members free admission, while general admission rates apply for non-members.
