5th July – 31st August
Get ready for another summer of fun, colour and curiosity as Kendal’s much-loved Adventure Trail returns for 2025. And this year, it’s all about celebrating our stunning county with a Cumbrian-themed trail through the streets and yards of Kendal.
Follow the trail map to complete five themed tasks each inspired by the sights, tastes, and traditions of Cumbria. Discover the foods, fells, colours, and modes of transport that define our region, and uncover 36 fascinating facts along the way.
Trail Treats
As always, many of Kendal’s brilliant local businesses are joining the adventure. Look out for the round Trail Treat symbol in shop windows. If you spot one, pop inside to claim a free treat, just for taking part.
Win a Weekly Prize
Once you’ve completed the trail, simply fill in your details on the map and drop it off at the Booths kiosk desk in Wainwright’s Yard to be entered into our weekly prize draw. You could win a £20 voucher to spend locally!
