Halloween Lakeside Trail and Lakeside Terror Trail
The Halloween Lakeside Trail is an enchanted walk and wickedly-fun family friendly experience at Patridge Lakes in Warrington, with friendly ghosts and woodland spiders, and a magical witches lair. But the Terror Trail is definitely for the grown-ups (or brave teens from 14+) with unstable prison inmates and zombies on the loose, and the quest to survive on this treacherous path. The fun – and fear – starts from Friday, October 4.
