Health: Healthy Walks in and around Wrexham's Country Parks

The Healthy Walks in and around Wrexham's Country Parks booklet contains 7 walks that start from the Country Parks managed by Wrexham Parks, Countryside and Public Rights of Way Service.

The walks are relatively easy being no more than 2-3 miles long, lasting no longer than 2 hours.

Dogs are welcome on the walks provided they are kept under control. We have tried to include in the walks any points of local interest.

If you have limited mobility please call 01978 763140 for advice on the suitability of the routes.

Each of Wrexham Countryside Services 7 Country Parks is unique, with something for everyone to enjoy, from tranquil woodland and riverside views to play areas and farm animals. Throughout the year we run an exciting programme of activities in each of the parks, details can be found in our events leaflet. We also provide an extensive environmental education programme for schools.
