Discovery Stroll: Ashland Lakes

Ashland Lakes

Tuesday 17 September
2pm
Free
Suitable for all ages

Join us on a short, guided walk at Ashland Lakes on Tuesday 17th September from 2pm as part of our Discovery Strolls Programme. 

Discovery Strolls are designed to give you an introduction to the park and the confidence to explore the local area, interesting points on the route and to find out what facilities are available on site. A member of The Parks Trust team will lead the walk and answer any questions you may have. The walk is at a gentle pace and will allow time for informal chat and any questions you might have. 

The car park at Penhurst Crescent in Ashland is the closest car park and drop-off point.

The car park has a height barrier and is small so please allow time to arrive, and park considerately. Please aim to arrive shortly before the scheduled time as we will set off at 2pm.

The event duration is approximately 1 hour-1.5 hours. On this walk we will stick to leisure routes on gravel paths, some of which may be slightly uneven. Our guide will ensure that the route is as accessible as possible.

Some of the walk may be slightly uneven, so please come with sturdy footwear and dressed appropriately for the weather.

There are no public toilet facilities at this location.

Please get in touch on events@theparkstrust.com if you require any accessibility support or to request a hearing loop.

All ages are welcome but children must be accompanied by an adult. Dogs unfortunately are unable to join these walks with the exception of assistance dogs.

No booking is required for this event. We hope to see you there!

If you require a more accessible event please look for our series of accessible walks, and if you would like a more in-depth Walk and Talk please look at those events for an expert guided walk around our parks with more interesting details about heritage and wildlife.

    Formerly known as the Simpson balancing reservoir these lakes were formed in around 2006 to provide a more attractive and interesting area of parkland for the adjoining housing development at Ashland.
