St Abbs Lifeboat Easter Egg Trail 2026
2026-04-01 08:00 - 2026-04-12 17:00 UTC
Its here again! The St Abbs Lifeboat Easter Egg Trail will be around the village over the Easter break. The route this year starts outside the Visitor Centre, heads along Brierylaw, goes half way along Murrayfield, then around to the playground, down to the coastal path, along Seaview Terrace and then down the “zig zag” path to the harbour to finish in front of the Lifeboat shop. If the Lifeboat shop is open, pop in and tell the good folk behind the counter all about this years story and you might get a little something!
Click here to print your trail map, bring a bit of scrap paper and a pen, follow the route, hunt for the eggs (there are 16) and jot down the words that you’ll find on each egg which, when added together, will make up a story about one of our resident village bunnies….or use a phone to take pics of the eggs…..or just remember the story as it unfolds. The trail is available to do at any time of day (or night?!). There are no prizes, no chocolate….its just a bit of fun…..but do feel free to donate online at the end if you’ve enjoyed your trail.

Have fun, cross roads safely, take care, enjoy and thank you as always for your support.
Happy Easter all.

2025-04-18 - 2025-04-21
Back by popular demand (well one person asked!) the St Abbs Easter Egg Trail will be around the village again in this weekend. The route starts outside the Visitor Centre, heads along Brierylaw, Murrayfield, Seaview Terrace and then down the “zig zag” path to the harbour and round in front of the cafe and Lifeboat shop to the Lifeboat Shed.

There are no leaflets this year (we’ve gone all green), so just bring a bit of scrap paper and a pen, follow the trail map, hunt for the eggs (there are 16) and jot down the words that you’ll find on each egg which, when added together, will make up a story about one of our resident village bunnies….or use a phone to take pics of the eggs…..or just remember the story as it unfolds. The trail is available to do at any time of day (or night?!). There are no prizes, no chocolate….its just a bit of fun…..but do feel free to pop a small donation in the box at the end, or click below, if you’ve enjoyed your trail.
Have fun, cross roads safely, take care in the harbour area, enjoy and thank you as always for your support.
Oh….and for those of you that did it last year ….the route might be the same but the hiding places are different!
Happy Easter all.
