The Chilterns is home to amazing wildlife and plants. The chalky ground makes for unique habitats – super rare chalk streams, beech woodlands, and chalky grasslands.

Hunt around the museum’s beautiful grounds to uncover facts about 10 of the creatures and plants that make the Chilterns their home – find all 10 creature fact-files to claim your prize!

Best for children aged 4 – 11. Younger children are welcome to take part – they might just need a bit of extra help from a grown-up.

When can I do the trail?

This trail is available during the museum’s usual opening hours, 10am – 4pm.
