The Loch Lomond Scary Trail and Pumpkin Patch Experience in Luss is available for £9.95 through Wowcher, reduced from £18. The family-friendly experience combines a story-led woodland adventure with a visit to the Faerie Tale Farm.
Trail quest and pumpkin picking
The woodland adventure follows a quest to recover seven spells scattered by the Wicked Witch of Loch Ness. Visitors work through clues and interactive challenges, with the trail taking around one to two hours to complete.
Families can allow extra time to visit the animals and browse the pop-up pumpkin patch, where pumpkins are available to pick. There are photo opportunities throughout the woods, farm and pumpkin patch.
Opening times and booking details
The experience opens at 9.30am, with the last trail entry at 3pm, and is based at Luss South Carpark, G83 8NX. The deal is valid until November 1, excluding October 19 and 26 as the site is closed on these days. Bookings must be made by October 19 'to avoid disappointment', the site says.
Due to the natural woodland terrain, the trail is unsuitable for pushchairs, wheelchairs and visitors with limited mobility. Well-behaved dogs are welcome on the trail, but cannot enter the farm area.
