Pumpkin Valley
Visitors enter through a bubble and smoke archway into an autumn wonderland filled with seasonal displays and a pumpkin tower. Guests can follow a pumpkin trail, climb aboard a pumpkin-filled dumper, check their height at the pumpkin measuring station, or sit in a giant deck chair for photos. Roaming scarecrows wander the area, and entry also allows exploration of the wider zoo and the World of Dinosaurs.
