Join us for a relaxed and scenic circular walk through Golden Acre Park, a much-loved green space well known for its circular lakeside walk, beautiful gardens and popular tea rooms.
-------------
This gentle walk explores some of the park’s most gorgeous nature spots. Along the way, there will be time to enjoy the scenery, spot wildlife, and pause for a short history talk.

Bring your camera, as you’re likely to see plenty of wildlife and spring flowers. Feel free to upload your photos to the event afterwards and see which one gets the most likes.

At around halfway through the walk, we’ll stop at the café for a break, a drink, and a chance to catch up before continuing the loop.
This is an easy-paced walk of approximately 1.6 miles, allowing plenty of time to enjoy the surroundings.
