parks

Don’t forget you can enjoy the sunshine for free with a walk in our parks.

Callendar Park offers a new Natural Play Trail, for kids big or small to use in whatever imaginative way they wish. Create your own fun games as you go around and keep your eyes peeled for the Roman Snails and magical woodland doors hidden round the route.

There’s also a large play area for burning off some steam. Why not bring a rug and relax on the grass while the wee ones run around the extensive grounds.

At the Helix Park you’ll find an Adventure Zone play park and Splash Play area which provides endless hours of fun. Ice creams and snacks are available at the Plaza Café.

How to book:

Along at Muiravonside Country Park, besides the lovely walks, visitors can explore the Poetry Trail and also visit Newparks Farm and meet our lovely collection of animals.
