Trees and their Travels

In conjunction with the Grant Lodge Trust Development, this walk explores the fascinating history, myths and hidden stories connected to the trees of around Grant Lodge and Cooper Park.

We’ll begin with an introduction from Helen Avenell on the development of Grant Lodge before setting off with Kath Todd on a gentle summer evening wander along the banks of the River Lossie.

Humanity has long held a deep connection with the living world, and many trees carry tales of magic, travel, folklore and mystery. Along the way, you’ll discover rare and unusual species gathered from across the globe, alongside familiar trees that hold secrets of their own.

Join us to hear intriguing stories of the remarkable journeys these trees have taken to reach our doorstep.
