Outdoor activities at Chirk Castle
A National Trust castle is encouraging people to get outside and focus on their well-being in January.
A range of outdoor activities have been organised on the 480 acre estate at Chirk Castle, from Nordic walking and guided rambles to marshmallow toasting and family bushcraft.
Visitors can also take a self guided walks map and spotter sheet and explore the estate.
Jon Hignett, visitor experience manager, said: "The activities throughout the money are designed to help with wellness and well-being, and get you feeling fantastic.
"Following a bit of festive excess, January is a great time to focus on your own wellness and well-being. What better way to do it than to get outdoors, and reconnect with nature
"Chirk Castle and the gardens are closed for conservation work in January, but we have a beautiful, 480 acre estate that is just starting to come to life through the first month of the year. As the month rolls on, if you look carefully, you can see the very first signs of spring starting to appear.
"We have guided activities through the month, to help you explore the estate, connect with nature, make new friends and work on your own wellness and well-being. There is Nordic walking, beginner running, Ranger Rambles, volunteer guided walks, winter tree identification, Mindfulness, drop-in toddler play, marshmallow toasting, and family bushcraft."
Entrance to the estate is free but some of the activities have to be booked.
