About Moses Gate Country Park

Moses Gate Country Park is a large Country Park and nature reserve with miles of scenic woodland and waterside walks, plus nature trails, and horse and cycle routes. It is open all year, free to visit, and only 3 miles (5km) south of Bolton town centre, making it a great place to visit both as a purposeful day trip or as a reprieve for the kids who don't like shopping! With varying natural displays and delights depending upon the season it's also often worth taking a camera.

The park is one of the most popular family visitor attractions in Bolton, with 35 hectares of informal open space to enjoy, and a great mix of habitats full of wildlife. It is centred on 3 large lakes, with the main one being reserved for migratory birds and wildlife, there is also a fishing lake, and a canoe lake. Rock Hall Visitor Centre is located within the grounds of the park, and next to it you can find the Bird Hide, which overlooks a wild setting of trees and bushes with a number of bird tables and hanging feeders to attract the many variety of birds that can be found in the area.
