There are also many activities available at the park and there are facilities
for everyone, including a Tea Shop, Children’s Play Area, Miniature railway
and aerial ropes adventure.
Route
There are four trails around the Park, of varying levels of distance and
difficulty. You will need a map, see overleaf.
1. Easy Access - approximately 30 minutes
This surfaced route is designed to be as level as possible. It allows
easier access to people of all abilities. It takes you on a circuit from
the car park with a couple of spurs taking you to a secluded glade
and a viewpoint. Returning to the path will then bring you back to
the start. Related easy access paths with slight gradients are around
Bag Pool and the Amphitheatre.
2. Toposcope Trail - approximately 45 minutes
From the car park, this trail takes you to Bag Pool and then up the
steeper path to the top of the pit mounds. Here you get a
magnificent view of the park and surrounding area.
3. Baggeridge Circular Walk - 1.5 miles
The variety of Baggeridge Country Park’s woods and meadows can
be explored by following this trail. Crossing the occasionally muddy
Clay Road to Lydiates Orchard can do a shorter, but no less delightful
version.
4. Baggeridge Wood Walk - 2 miles
This scenic route on public footpaths leads through the private part
of Baggeridge Wood. It leaves the Park at the outflow of the Lower
Wishing Pool and, by turning right at a crossroads, will bring you to
Gospel End Common..
The Ranger Service conducts various guided walks around
Baggeridge Country Park throughout the year.
