1 / 3Walsall Arboretum
đ Walsall, West Midlands
Well-maintained Walsall park with a children's playground, summer splash area, lake with walking paths, skate park, outdoor gym, and weekly Saturday Parkrun. Free parking and an on-site cafe with dog-friendly menu.
Attended the Saturday morning 9am Parkrun here. Great venue, with loads of free parking. 5-10 minute walk to the start of the run and a very well attended course. Well managed, friendly marshalls and great views around the park. Its a 2 lapper, on good paths and plenty of room for everyone. Toilets also at the start and finish and a cafe just around the corner. Highly recommend a visit.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families with children of any age who want multiple activity options in one location â playground, splash area, skate park, outdoor gym, and lakeside walking all in one park. Summer visits unlock the splash area and the arboretum is at its most appealing in autumn colour.
