Trails & walks

Enjoy our free self-guided trails in your own time or book one of our guided walks around the Cemetery. Whilst you are here, please remember…

  • Leave everything as you found it. You may take seeds home
  • Don’t eat anything from the trail and wash your hands after picking things up
  • All children should be accompanied by an adult
  • Stick to the paths and mown grass areas—graves are unstable
