Set in the grounds of some of our most stunning places, Easter Egg Trails are a Cadbury twist on the classic Easter egg hunt. Follow the clues, answer the questions and complete the challenges to find your way to a special Cadbury prize. Each trail is unique to its host and offers fun and games ideal for all the family such as face painting, outdoor games, sack races and much more.

Now in its fifth year, the Cadbury and National Trust Easter Egg Trails are perfect for the whole family to join in. Children will also have the chance to get creative and design their very own Cadbury egghead.

To join in with the fun, simply visit www.eastereggtrail.com where you can find your nearest Cadbury and National Trust Easter Egg Trail event, and details of how to participate, along with tips on how to make the most of the Easter weekend at home.

And the fun doesn’t stop there, throughout the Easter week rediscover the simple pleasures in life like a day out by the coast spent with family or friends, discovering a special place for the first time, a walk alone in a peaceful landscape to absorb the breathtaking views or relaxing while kids channel their energy into romping around beautiful parklands. Paddle around Strangford Lough or bike around the stunning Castle Ward estate then sit back, relax and enjoy afternoon tea in Lord Bangor’s sitting room. Cruise around Lough Erne in Crom’s 100 year old traditional cot and go explore the array of spectacular gardens, coast and countryside in the care of the National Trust, Northern Ireland’s largest conservation charity.

Whatever your taste, you will enjoy an amazing Easter day out at any of the National Trust’s Northern Ireland gems. No matter where you visit it will be family time well spent.

Happy Hunting!
