Jungle Giants Safari - a larger than life summer experience

Follow in the footsteps of the great Victorian plant hunters who made sub-tropical Jungle dreams a Cornish reality. Be prepared for mammoth discoveries and colossal escapades.

Step into the heart of Heligan’s sub-tropical Jungle for a sensory adventure inspired by the daring Victorian explorers who first brought this exotic world to life.

Begin your journey at our Jungle Hollow basecamp, where our seasoned intrepid explorers will welcome you, share tales of botanical bravery and check your passport. You will collect your seed specimen envelope and set off ‘On Safari’.

Venture deep into the lush landscape of towering bamboo, giant rhubarb, towering tree ferns and hidden pathways as you discover fascinating plants and animals from across the globe.

Along the way, collect passport stamps, build your own explorer’s den in the Heligan Play Meadow where you’ll create lasting memories in this immersive summer family experience.

During your expedition, collect seed specimens and use them to craft a wooden beaded bracelet, a handmade souvenir of your Jungle adventure.

All Jungle Giant Safari activities are included with normal garden admission charges.

Adventure awaits – are you ready to uncover the secrets of the Jungle?
