Meet the Junk Dragon

Tucked away high on the hill at Discovery Land, deep within our woodland, you’ll find our awe-inspiring Junk Dragon – a fantastical creature who has made his lair among the trees. Guarding his home is the thrilling Tyre Trail Challenge, a winding woodland obstacle course crafted from repurposed materials, inviting little explorers to climb, crawl and scramble their way through his daring domain.

Breathing Life into Discarded Treasures

Crafted by our extraordinary in-house team of creators and crafters, this mythical creature is no ordinary dragon. It breathes life into discarded treasures, ingeniously assembled from old tractor and vehicle tyres salvaged from items once destined for the dump. When the sun shines, keep an eye out for the mischievous sparkle in the Junk Dragon’s eye, created by the clever repurposing of an orange tractor light!

A firm favourite with visitors, the Junk Dragon stands as a magical reminder that even waste can be transformed into something truly enchanting.

Guarding the Lair: The Tyre Trail Challenge

Our Junk Dragon hasn’t been resting – he’s been busy crafting a daring obstacle course to guard his hidden lair deep beneath the trees. Welcome to the Tyre Trail Challenge, the ultimate woodland adventure where bravery, balance and determination are put to the test.

Climb, Crawl & Conquer

Built from chunky tractor and transport tyres and cleverly repurposed rubber, this thrilling tyre jungle twists and turns through a wild woodland setting. Young adventurers can clamber up high, duck down low, tunnel through and scramble across wobbly sections as they weave their way through the Junk Dragon’s tricky terrain.

A fun physical challenge that builds coordination, confidence and resilience with every step! The Junk Dragon has set his challenge… can your little explorers conquer the Tyre Trail and discover what awaits inside his lair?
