The Trails Toolbox is a new practical book to help heritage professionals develop self-guided trails for a range of visitor types. The toolbox contains: 
- 8 free examples of trails from around the country,
- a quick reference postcard, an index,
- welcome letter and
- CD containing over 50 pages of guidance, checklists and help
- Over 20 real examples of trails featured and many more to download,
- Over 10 pages of directory listings of useful organisations, help documents, suppliers, funders and image libraries
- Useful resources.
Whether you are a huge national botanic garden, city-centre museum, zoo, historic parkland or a tiny medieval house; trails can have great potential to enrich your visitor experience and help you to achieve your goals.
This toolbox is designed to help you create memorable visitor experiences by providing inspirational self-guided trails. This isn’t about the usual hum-drum trails that pop-up all over the place, it’s about going a step further to create trails that really kick ass!
With a little focus, planning and creative thinking trails can be elevated from the scrappy bit of photocopied A4 (that looks like it’s been through the copier one too many times) to an engagement tool that visitors cherish, remember and bring friends back to enjoy too. It’s not about throwing money at a problem, it’s about getting our thinking caps on and being willing to try something new with whatever money, time and enthusiasm we have available.
We’ve organised it into six simple steps to help you get results and be as practical as possible!
The toolbox is there to help with planning and story development, writing your text and designing your trail, deciding on the best format for your trail, to provide some inspiration for ideas and practical help on essentials like testing.
