    Tips

    Mallard Plantation is just a short distance away from Castle Ward, yet it feels like another world; with singsong birds, flowering wood sorrel, high towering emerald trees, and a truly magical ambiance.

      November 1, 2024

      The narrow path leads through dense vegetation, the light gently breaks through the leaves and creates an almost mystical atmosphere. It is pleasantly cool and you can hear nothing except the gentle rustling of the leaves and the crunching of the gravel under your tires. A place where you like to drive slower, take in the surroundings and enjoy the feeling of peace.
