Wild Magic! An autumn family trail

Find plants and trees around Dirleton Castle and Gardens, answer the clues, and discover older Scottish stories about their supposed magical powers. Children receive a sticker on completion. Historic Environment Scotland lists Wild Magic! An autumn family trail from Saturday 10 October to Sunday 1 November 2026, and includes Dirleton Castle and Gardens among participating venues. Dirleton Castle winter opening during this period is Saturday to Wednesday, 10am to 4pm, with last entry 30 minutes before closing. The castle is closed on Thursdays and Fridays, so this listing does not invent Thursday or Friday occurrences. Included with normal Dirleton Castle admission. Free for Historic Scotland members.
