Get ready for a festive and exciting adventure at Bedgebury National Pinetum and Forest as we invite everyone to Crack the Zog Christmas code.
This Christmas, Bedgebury Pinetum is adding a festive twist to the much loved Zog Trail. Your task is to find new clues in the form of stickers on boards. Once spotted, carefully observe the image and write down the first letter of the word it represents on your clue leaflet. As you make your way through the Zog Christmas code adventure, you'll uncover hidden letters one by one, finally revealing a Christmas word.
But the excitement doesn't stop there! Once you've cracked the final word, return your completed leaflet to Bedgebury, and you'll receive a Zog decoration that will add a touch of magic to your Christmas tree.
To join in and solve the puzzle, you will need to buy a Zog Christmas clue leaflet for just £1.50 when you get to Bedgebury Pinetum. Alternatively, you can get a Zog Trail pack for £4, which includes the clue leaflet for free.
The Christmas addition to the Zog Trail promises fun for all families this winter. Join us at Bedgebury from Friday 24 November to Sunday 31 December for a holiday trail like no other. Don't miss this chance to immerse yourself in the captivating world of Zog and make this Christmas season truly special.
