1 / 3Pype Hayes Park
đ Birmingham, West Midlands
Large Birmingham park with playgrounds, lake wildlife including herons and waterfowl, canal walks along PlantsBrook, and seasonal summer beach with funfair. Tennis courts and cycling paths throughout. Free parking with disabled bays.
If you are after a simple park, this will be a nice place where you can have a good walk around, jogging, walk with you dogs, cycling around the area, playing tennis and for kids there is a special place where they can play. This park has a special area where you will find a diversity of flowers and it's quite a relaxing place for who's in love of macro photography and just reading on a bench surrounded by nice flowers and their perfumes. You have a small lake where you can enjoy from time to time some ducks and swans đĨš In summer you got also some some temporary and great funfair play locations for kids and adults.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families wanting a varied outdoor day combining active play, wildlife spotting, and walking without an admission charge. The summer funfair and beach area transform the park into a fuller day out. Canal routes along PlantsBrook extend walks for older children and adults.

âNice park with good connections, it's easy to park and connects to the canal. Disabled parking is decent and the park is wheelchair accessible with a few different areas (woods, open space, lake etc). Usually clean with not much litter - bins emptied regularly. The lake isn't massively impressive but it's nice to see the swans, geese and ducks. There's a playground for children which is quite popular. The flower garden is also nice.â

âBirmingham beach and fun fair!! What an amazing day spent with family. The beach and deck chairs are free & keep the little ones entertained and also a very good range of activities/ rides. The pool was well worth the ÂŖ3 for 20 mins more then enough to cool you down đĨĩâ

âThis is a great park! Wonderful trails for exercise. Rough for riding but great running or walking trail along the canal. It has a playground for small kids, free parking, tennis courts, wide open spaces that are great for picnics and games, pond with ducks and geese, wooded areas for exploring and a beautiful garden. We spotted a baby deer on our visit near the car park which was exciting.â
