Hedgehog Adventure

Welcome to The Wild Things Trail: Hedgehog Adventure

The Wild Things Trail challenges you to navigate the streets of Thame through the ‘paws’ of a hedgehog. The trail has been developed by 21st Century Thame and Thame Town Council (sponsored by BP Collins) and everyone is welcome to take part. You can pick up the trail leaflets from Thame Town Hall, Thame Library, Racquets Fitness Centre and Tiggywinkles.

Your Mission

Just out of hibernation, you are a hedgehog desperately in need of food and company!

You have left your cosy nest in Cuttle Brook Nature Reserve and start your hunt from Southern Road Recreation Ground. You decide to set out towards one of Thame’s other parks in the hope of finding tasty insects – and other friendly hedgehogs – on the way.

Your aim is to get reach the finish with the highest Energy Score you can.

May the best hedgehog(s) win!
