Overview

Join Peter for a lovely circular walk around New Springs Country Park in Grimethorpe. It starts in the Acorn Centre car park, with a little bit of road walking through the industrial estate. There are 2 roads to cross before getting to the park. The surface in the park is slightly uneven but does not get muddy. There is an incline to get up to the view point (it's worth the walk up!).

The walk is dog friendly but please keep them on the lead. The walk is family friendly, however, please contact Peter using the form above if you have any questions to gage a better understanding of the route i.e if you plan to bring a pushchair.
