Tree trail relaunched in Wimborne

The trail is the sixth to be launched in the town to mark Wimborne Minster being Town of Culture for 2026.

Wimborne Minter’s Tree Trail was relaunched with stirring words from Town Crier Cllr Chris Brown on the Minster Green. The original trail was created by Cllr Bill Richmond, and Planet Wimborne joined with Wimborne Minster Town Council for the re-launch.

This is the sixth project to provide a trail a month through 2026 linked to the Town of Culture.
So far, Planet Wimborne, the BID and Wimborne Minster Town Council have worked together to provide: a Music Trail (January), a Pre-Loved Trail (February), a Historic Green Plaque Trail (March), a relaunched Bee Trail (April) and a trail linked to the Literary Festival (May). All except the event-specific last one will live on after the Town of Culture as a legacy, and there are more in the pipeline to enjoy as the year unfolds.

People can follow all the trails, including the Tree Trail, using postcards available from the Museum of East Dorset shop or online at https://tinyurl.com/PWtrails
