From Saturday 9 April - Monday 15 April, between 10:00am and 5:00pm daily, the wildlife charity is running a Landscape Quiz Trail at Northumberlandia in Cramlington.

The family friendly trail takes participants through the woodland, around the lake and halfway up the sculpture to the left hip - although the adventurous may want to walk to the top - before rounding off the trail with a visit to the Northumberlandia Visitor Centre café and seeing what Easter delights are on the menu.

Still, under the watchful eye of the Lady of the North, between Good Friday and Easter Monday, the Trust will be running an Easter Egg Trail.

From 10:00am - 3:30pm children between the age of 3 and 11 will be able to enjoy some springtime fun by searching for brightly coloured eggs hidden within the Northumberlandia woodland whilst answering nature related questions and solving a word puzzle.

All participants will receive a small chocolate treat from the Visitor Centre café courtesy of Waitrose Eldon Square.

Across at Weetslade Country Park, on the outskirts of Newcastle, the Trust is hosting the Weetsalde Spring Trail.  Again, self-led, the will run from Saturday 9 April - Sunday 24 April, between 10:00am and 4:00pm daily.

Following a downloaded map, nature lovers will discover 10 mini information boards, where they will find intriguing and fascinating facts all about the former colliery site springtime.

All the trails are downloadable.  Visit nwt.org.uk/events for further details.
