A Fairy Tale Trail has returned to make walks around a country park a little more magical.
Stunning sculptures of mythical characters, animals and a fairy house have been installed after previous installations were taken by thieves.
Salford City Council announced the trail was back at Clifton Country Park.
The sculptures were originally funded with the help of Friends of Clifton Park.
The trail had been popular with families and children since they opened in 2017.
The new sculptures have not been put in place to restore the fun and magic of the spot.

Cllr Barbara, Bentham, the lead member for neighbourhoods, environment and community safety at Salford Council expressed her excitement at the move.
She said: "We’re thrilled to restore the Fairy Tale Trail.
"We’re dedicated to maintaining our parks and green spaces, and even though we faced the challenge of the stolen sculptures, we’re proud to have replaced them quickly.
"The Fairy Tale Trail is a great way for families to enjoy the outdoors, and it’s wonderful to see everyone enjoying the park again."
Rangers at the park have said the community is delighted to see the trail back in full.
A park ranger said: "We’ve had many happy visitors, especially the younger ones, who are thrilled to see the sculptures back."
