This winter, experience the Heights of Abraham in a brand new light as we present our stunning light trail between 21st November and 30th December. Tickets are on sale now!
Make your way down the festoon-lit riverside walkway before arriving at the base station to board your gondola and take a moonlit cable car flight across the river and above an avenue of colour.
Once you arrive at the summit set off on the trail that winds through illuminated gardens, across boardwalks and along woodland paths. You'll encounter many interesting and unusual scenes along the way.
Look out for the neon forest, the giant swans, interactive stepping stones, ice garden & colourful surprises around every corner.
The Vista Bar will be open serving festive tipples alongside its usual drinks menu, with pizzas on offer too. Downstairs in the cafe we will be serving jacket potatoes, hot dogs, loaded chips and delicious cake. The Snap Tin will be open too with take away drinks and festive treats. We also have lovely firepits to toast marshmallows on and keep warm!

Friday 21st November to Tuesday 30th December 2025
Excluding Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day
