Heligan Halloween - The story of the Giant Halloween pumpkin

Join us for a Carved Pumpkin Trail like you’ve never seen before. Discover giant pumpkins creatively carved into characters sure to give you a Halloween thrill!

Follow the family trail by day or at dusk and watch out for the giant spiders. Bought to life by the creative team at Sand in your eye, these incredible carved giant pumpkin characters will be busy with jobs in the Heligan Productive Gardens, creating a quirky and entertaining seasonal experience. 

Alongside these seasonal family activities visitors are invited to toast a marshmallow over our fire bowls and take in the autumn air as you stretch your legs in the Heligan Play Meadow.

Jack-o-lantern trail

Specially created with little ones in mind, the Heligan-crafted carved pumpkins set a trail around our gardens. How many Jack-o-lanterns will you count while dodging the giant spiders lurking in their over-sized webs?
