Easter Trail
Easter at Perrygrove Railway Adventure
Steam Trains, Easter Adventures & Family Days Out in the Forest of Dean
Step into a slower, simpler kind of Easter day out in the Forest of Dean
The kind where the kids run ahead down woodland paths…and you actually get a moment to breathe.
At Perrygrove Railway Adventure, families looking for Easter events in the Forest of Dean or a relaxed family day out in Gloucestershire will find something refreshingly simple.
It’s steam trains through the forest.
It’s children spotting things from the carriage window.
It’s muddy boots, fresh air and “just one more ride.”

A day where everything just works
No overplanning. No rushing between activities. Children naturally find their rhythm — climbing, exploring, riding, then heading back for “just one more go.”
And somewhere in the middle of it all, you’ll likely find yourself thinking:
“This was a very good idea.“
For families who prefer space to explore rather than queues and crowds, Perrygrove offers a calmer kind of day out.
Spot Easter surprises from the train
Available every day during the Easter holidays
As the train winds through our little corner of the Forest of Dean, little explorers start to look a little closer. Hidden along the railway line are Easter surprises waiting to be spotted.
It becomes a shared moment —
“Did you see that?”
“I think I spotted one!”
“Did you see that?”
“I think I spotted one!”
Find them all and there may even be a small Easter gift waiting at the end – available to collect from the café.
Easter crafts in the carriage shed
Available throughout the Easter holidays
When energy dips or the weather turns, our Carriage Shed is ready.
Simple Easter crafts and our popular railway role play.
A moment to sit down.
Something to make and take home.
