Things to do for families at Brixworth Country Park
Walking and Cycling Trails
One of the highlights of Brixworth Country Park is its network of cycling and walking trails that wind through the park's wooded areas and open meadows. These trails offer visitors a chance to explore the diverse habitats within the park, from ancient woodlands to wildflower meadows. The park is also home to a variety of wildlife, making it a great spot for birdwatching and nature photography.
You can pick a trail and set off on a family cycling expedition exploring the park at your own pace. Children might enjoy the Grey Men Trail where you can read storyboards along your walk. Whether you're cruising along the lakeside paths or tackling more challenging off-road routes. We think cycling and walking is a fantastic way to experience the beauty of Brixworth Country Park.
Scavenger Hunt
Pick up a scavenger hunt sheet from the ranger's office and see what you can find. Maybe you'll discover secret paths on your search through the countryside.
Children's Play Areas
Let your kids burn off some energy at the park's play areas, complete with swings, slides, and climbing frames. It's the perfect way for them to have fun and make new friends.
Fishing
For a more relaxed experience, why not try a spot of fishing? Pitsford Water within Brixworth is renowned for its excellent fishing opportunities, with plenty of perch, pike, and carp just waiting to be caught. Grab your fishing rods, bait, and tackle, and head to one of the designated fishing spots with stunning reservoir surroundings. It's a great way to teach your children patience and appreciation for nature while enjoying some quality bonding time by the water's edge. For further guidance refer to Anglian Water advice.
