Polar bears and pumpkins - its all happening at Peak Wildlife Park this Halloween

Nestled on the edge of the Peak District the Winkhill-based wildlife park is going all out for spooky season and there is fun for all the family.

Becky Parsons, operations at the park, said: "Halloween is one of our favourite times of year at the park.

“We've packed every weekend in October and the whole of half term with spooky fun, and the best bit is that most of it is included in your ticket.

“Whether you're brave enough for the witches' lair or you just want to knock on a door and hope for a treat, there's something for everyone, plus all our animals to visit too."

The park opened in 2015 with a vision to not only provide entertainment but also to emphasize the importance of conservation, education, and sustainability.

The focus has always been to offer visitors the chance to witness rare and endangered species up close while learning about the challenges these animals face in the wild.

The park is a unique wildlife attraction that combines conservation, education, and entertainment for visitors of all ages.

With its commitment to preserving biodiversity and promoting sustainable practices, the park has rapidly become one of the UK's most beloved wildlife destinations.

Now the park is home to polar bear brothers, red pandas, a family of otters and a pack of bush dogs.

There is also the chance to walk with the capybaras and feed the wallabies as well as watching penguins swim and the giant rabbits lop about.

The Halloween fun is on until November, 1 and as well as the included spooky activities such as pumpkin bowling and witch hat toss there are also paid for extras where people can pick a pumpkin, load the cannon and aim at the targets as well as filling in the spooky Passport Stamp Trail and toasting giant marshmallows.

A child’s ticket is from £17.95 and an adult ticket from £21.95.
