Easter fun returns to House of Dun for first time since 2019

The National Trust for Scotland (NTS) has announced that the favourite family springtime event is returning to properties across Scotland.

The fun trails were, until the pandemic paused them after Easter 2019, a fixture of many families’ Spring holidays, with around 30,000 visitors taking part.

The House of Dun estate will join 22 other properties participating from Friday, April 15, to Monday, April 18. Visitors can enjoy exploring the grounds as spring begins to blossom, following clues, solving a puzzle and collecting a chocolate reward.

Mark Bishop, Director of Customer & Cause at NTS, said: “All of us here at the National Trust for Scotland are so excited to confirm the return of our Easter Egg Trails. We know how many families love taking part, exploring the beautiful places in our care and enjoying nature, as Spring arrives.

"For our charity, these events are a highlight of our year, giving us the chance to involve thousands of people in Scotland’s nature and heritage in a fun and appealing way.”
