Poole Park is an interesting park laid out around a very large boating lake and some attractive duck ponds

Courses of 1.0, 2.1 and 3.1 km are available.

Map packs cost £1 and will be available from the kiosk near the islands, hopefully from later in June. Alternatively they can be downloaded and printed, as described below.

The park is open all the year, parking is free but it can get tight on Sunday afternoons, especially in the summer season. Toilets are available at the east end of the park and in the Cygnet café which provides refreshments. There are also trips on the narrow gauge railway, boats for hire on the pond, boules, ducks & swans and plenty of scope for picnics and games. The lovely new Mezza Luna restaurant, overlooking the lake, completes the picture.
