Crocy Trail - Chester
During the half term break a few weeks ago I went to the Crocy Trail near Chester with the kids and wife. Luckily the weather was brilliant. All I can say is that its like a poor mans Alton towers. Lots of rides, no electricity, no stewards. It reminded me of when I was a child, lots of good honest fun. kids get full of mud. If you do an internet search you can see some of the rides. We took a picnic (there are picnic tables). couldnt get the kids to come home!! Well worth the £7 each entrance fee. Like I said, dont expect gadgets, just plenty of ropes, slides and lots of fun!!

Re: Crocy Trail - Chester
My kids are 13 and 11. I would say from 6 yr old to about 13 yrs old. When I went, there were hundreds and hundreds of kids really having fun. Nobody there measuring the size of the kids, just kids jumping on obstacles, climbing rope bridges across streams.

Re: Crocy Trail - Chester
That looks great for kids. Can adults go on all the stuff because I'd take my son and god daughter both of whom are under 5 (but very adventurous (sic) ) but I wouldn't want them to go the activities alone.

Re: Crocy Trail - Chester
Yes Lolly you can go on the obstacles with the kids..Be careful though as there arnt any stewards.. There is a nice walk round thats about a mile and it has lots of different things you can do before coming back to the main area (small zip wire, underground tunnel, small bridges, slides). I got recommended to go off somebody else and its a change from chester zoo. I know a lady at work who went with her kids and they loved it! she took a change of clothes for the kids!! It really is an eye opener. Like I said dont expect posh stuff and take a picnic. There is a very small hut that sells ice cream and things but bringing your own stuff is cheaper
