Family walking across wobbly bridge in Eden's Rainforest Biome

Planning your visit

A day at Eden is a real adventure. The indoor Biomes and the gardens outside cover roughly 30 acres and take about four hours to explore. The site is brimming with facilities to make your visit easy and enjoyable. 

The paths of Eden climb up and down the slopes of the former clay mine, but there are plenty of places to sit and rest on the way, and toilet facilities, which are flushed by recycled rainwater. And – a little tip – our indoor Biomes are covered in a material that transmits UV, so don’t forget the sun cream!
