    Visitors will also be able to see the British Horse loggers and their timber horses in action, as well as get the opportunity to hold the reins.

    In addition to the 300 exhibitors, there are further activities including axe throwing, tree climbing, chainsaw simulators, lumberjacks, chainsaw carvers and more.
