Playgrounds Walk (2.0 km)

1. From the Visitor Centre, heard towards the lake with Echill's Wood

Railway Station on your left and the Lakeview Play Area on your right. At

the lakeside you will see lots of the Water Park’s inhabitants; ducks,

geese, coots and even swans.

2. After the playground, bear left and cross over the wooden bridge that

runs parallel to the railway line. Follow the path round to the right and

continue along the main path between a large lake to your right

(Bodymoor Heath Pool) and a smaller one to your left (Willow’s Pool).

3. After 2-3 minutes (just past Willow’s Pool) you will come to a wooden

seat at a junction. Here, turn half left and follow the wide path through a

meadow towards some trees.

4. When you reach a crossroads, turn to your left, past a barrier and

cross over a parking area (there will be a map of the Water Park and a

toilet block on your right). Go past the toilet block to the road then turn

right to join the path leading to the Adventure Playground. Here you can

stop for a while to play and, weather permitting, maybe take a ride on

the pedal boats around Mitchell’s Pool.*

5. On leaving the Adventure Playground retrace your steps towards the

road by the parking area. You will see the Far Leys Railway Station on

your right. Follow the road all the way back to the Visitor Centre

(approximately 0.5 Km), crossing over the railway line twice on the way.

6. If you’d like to see the model railway, take a short detour onto the

small path to your left just before you cross the railway line for the

second time (just before the sign for the level crossing).

* Pedal boats available for 15 minute sessions throughout most of the summer; weekends and school holidays. Costs apply
