Events, activities & guided walks

Why not grab a breath of fresh air, enjoy the green open spaces while taking part in one of our many events and activities?

Activities range from Earthwatchers at Blackleach Country Park and Kingfisher Kids at Clifton Country Park and the Cliff, which are aimed at families with children aged between 6 and 12.

There are guided walks throughout the year with special interest walks looking at industrial history and natural history to longer walks for those who want to stretch their legs a little bit more.

We look forward to seeing you.
