About

Looking for an unforgettable family day out in North Wales? Join us at Gwrych Castle for an exciting Dragon Egg Hunt from 28th March to 12th April

Shhh! Can you keep a secret? Dafydd, Gwrych Castle's Dragon, needs YOUR help this Easter half term. Dafydd and his wife, Dwynwen, have chosen the North Welsh Castle to rest while their Dragonling eggs wait to be hatched, but she has left him in charge, and he needs as much help as he can get to look after them all! While meeting a mythical guide that helps you along the way, head on a journey through the castle grounds to see your very own dragonling hatch!

What’s Included in the Dragon Egg Hunt?
- Meet Dafydd and find out what mischief he's been up to
- Solve fun puzzles, riddles, and challenges to find the dragon’s eggs
- Meet mythical characters who will guide you on your quest with elemental activities
- Hatch your very own dragon egg
- Explore the historic castle and gardens with access to the full visitor route
- Fancy dress encouraged!

Accessibility
The Castle was built into a hill; subsequently, the terrain is uneven with many steps, slopes, and steep footpaths throughout the estate. Many of the footpaths along our standard visitor route are unsuitable for pushchairs, self-drive three-wheeled vehicles and wheelchairs.
