1. Look at Lincoln differently this summer
See the city from a different perspective, by taking part in the new 100 Voices Trail. Commemorating the RAF centenary, the 100 voices trail features 8 new walking and cycling trails around Lincoln city and the surrounding countryside. Open until the end of September ’18, everyone is invited to take part and explore the close link that Lincolnshire shares with aviation whilst discovering the stories of those who’ve experienced RAF life since 1918.

2. Walk in the footsteps of Kings
Uncover one of England’s most fascinating historical sites and walk in the footsteps of Kings and prisoners, at Lincoln Castle. Featuring one of only four surviving original copies of the Magna Carta in the entire world, explore the castles towers and dungeons by taking part in the mesmerizing medieval wall walk and enter the Victorian Prison; if you dare! With so much to do and see here, you’ll be relieved to know that there’s a Lincoln Castle annual pass available.

3. Visit a Victorian sun trap
Lincoln Arboretum on Lindum Terrace provides the best of both worlds; the kids can run off excess energy across the 22 acres of beautiful Victorian designed gardens, whilst you soak up the sumptuous summer sun keeping a watchful eye from a safe distance. With an array of activities on each week, this is a beautiful spot to take a moment out of the hustle and bustle of city life and truly relax in glorious surroundings that everyone can appreciate.

4. ‘Horse around’ in Lincoln
If you’re an animal lover, then make sure you visit one of the UK’s largest equine welfare charities this summer; Bransby Horse sanctuary. Celebrating 50 years of dedicated equine rescue and welfare, it’s a beautiful place to walk, interact with horses, have a spot of home-cooked lunch and even adopt a horse!
