This easy circuit of just under 3 miles (4½ km) provides an introduction to the beautiful and historic Birkenhead Park. It is not only the parkland that is of interest, with its woodland, open spaces and secluded lakes, but the grandiose architecture of the various lodges and houses, expressing the aspirations of the Birkenhead powers-that-were in the mid-19th century. Refreshments and toilets are available in the Birkenhead Park Pavilion.
