Ickle Owl

Discover the magic of the outdoors with Ickle Owl, an immersive augmented reality (AR) experience designed for families and nature lovers. Previously featured at National Trust Stowe Gardens, Ickle Owl is now available at BBOWT’s College Lake and the Nature Discovery Centre. Explore the beauty of UK nature reserves in a whole new way by using intuitive hand tracking to interact with the AR world in real time — wave to woodland creatures, trigger animations, and experience nature in a playful, engaging way. As you follow the trail, Ickle Owl brings the landscape to life with interactive forest friends and opportunities to capture memorable photos. Along the way, you can meet charming characters, learn about the environment, and turn a simple walk into an unforgettable outdoor adventure for all ages. Download the app, visit a participating location, and let your journey begin.
