STORM Arwen may have kept anticipation going for a day, but the countdown to Christmas started in earnest as Delamere Forest launched its new glittering illuminated Trail at the weekend.
Inspired by the landscape itself, delighted visitors explored a festive adventure in a world of trees, dramatically drenched with stunning lights and set to the soundtrack of seasonal favourites.
The family-friendly festive trail features dragonflies, singing trees and shimmering reflections that cast light into hidden places.
Internationally acclaimed installation artworks Florison and the stunning Christmas Cathedral with more than a thousand pea lights were also to be found woven into the forest landscape and lighting hidden nooks of the deep forest.
So, wrap up warm and be transported into a winter wonderland, surrounded by millions of twinkling lights. Don’t forget to look out for Father Christmas along the way.
Independent street food vendors bring a delicious twist to tasty treats on offer so you can complete your walk under the stars with toasting marshmallows over a fire, a spiced winter warmer or hot chocolate shared with someone special.
There are also traditional fairground rides to enjoy. My Christmas at Delamere Forest provides a special way to celebrate the festive season with an unmissable outdoor experience. The trail is designed for visitors of all ages and is accessible to all to enjoy.
The trail is on nightly from 4.30pm-10pm, with last entry at 8pm, until December 31.
