SUTTON PARK TALES AND TRAILS 6Km

A GUIDED CROSS COUNTRY RUN OR WALK BETWEEN SUTTON PARKS HISTORIC POOLS.

Sutton Park is a truely magical place. As one of the largest Nature Reserves in the whole of Europe, it contains original Roman Roads, Ponies roaming freely and secret Wishing Wells only the rangers know about…

It’s been used for many purposes throughout the years including ITV filming, military training for both World Wars, and a Christmas Day tradition that isn’t forbidden, but certainly isn’t encouraged…

Join us for one of it’s less obscure purposes: exploration by foot. We’ll guide you along it’s trails on a walk or run, stopping at 3 of its 7 pools to tell you all of the parks best tales.

Tails (Dogs) are invited to the walking tour in return for cuddles and strokes.
