Hundreds of people have been enjoying a touch of magic in McHughs Forest Park.

A collection of 20 magic doors set up in the forest for the school holidays has drawn a huge turn out from people keen to enjoy the fun.

The car park at McHughs Forest Park has been full most days since the doors arrived, with dozens of cars sighted every day and people have been posting pictures on social media and at the Darfield Library, which is offering to print pictures of people enjoying the doors for free.

The main visitors have been families, including one birthday party, but the doors have attracted people of all ages enjoying a magical experience.

The doors will be in place until the end of the school holidays.
