Sculpture trail
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A sculpture trail is, most often, a permanent series of large, outdoor sculptures located in a woodland or parkland settings, with public walkways giving access to the sculptures. It is larger than a sculpture garden, and the sculptures may be sited out-of-sight of one another. There is often wheelchair access, and also a sculptor-in-residence creating new, temporary works.
The name sculpture park is more properly applied to a larger area, especially those with roads that give primacy to the motor car and/or to viewing sculptures from a car.
The history of the development and spread of sculpture trails and sculpture parks is, as yet, unwritten.
