    We loved having a relaxing walk around this park, it’s super clean and has some beautiful places to sit and watch the world go by. Parking was free and easy to access and the visitor centre was incredibly clean and covid safe. Would highly recommend a visit here

    What a lovely place for a hike. There are so many trails for all abilities and ages. A real dog walkers paradise. Lots to see and do enough for the whole family. Children’s play area on site and yes there is even a cafe where you can refuel and relax! A definite recommendation from me.

    Lovely well kept park. Great for just a walk or walking the dog and a great place to take the kids to burn off some energy on the park which is great for all ages. There's a lovely lake where you can feed the ducks.

    This tranquil harbour is a firm favourite on my park-life list, a beautiful relaxing stress free way to spend a mornings walk away from the crowd. I highly recommend it for peace and quiet and picturesque surroundings and to those that drop litter; don’t you have any respect? I see plenty of waste receptacles so why not stop and think for one minute about what you’re doing and keep our parks beautiful and the same applies to the streets we live in. Have some respect, be thoughtful and let’s keep it clean!

    Beautiful place to visit. It was my first time here even though I live nearby and I was so surprised to find this on my doorstep. Lovely to visit with kids, also.

    Large town centre park with sizable lake inhabited by various waterfowl. There are beautifully manicured gardens, less cultivated areas of trees, a visitors' centre with a cafΓ© and loos, picnic areas with tables, or you can even take your own barbecue if you follow the guidelines that are posted. Great place to walk, run, take the kiddies, the dog and just enjoy the ambience.

    Lovely place to have a relaxing walk, just outside the town centre. Worth going to the visitors centre with reasonably priced drinks and snacks. You can also buy food to feed the ducks, which is great fun especially for the kids!!

    Beautiful walk around the Arboretum. One of the few places in my home town that still reminds me of my childhood.

    Lovely well kept park, I could believe how large the park. There is so much to do walks and play are for the kids or teenagers. Areas for picnics for the family and parking is limited.

    Lovely open space, clean and inviting. A great place to visit without having to spend a penny! You can walk through the gardens, see ducks, swans and the other birds in the lake and pop over to the play area park for the kids. Have seen many people settle down on the grass for a nice picnic too.

    Delightful large park with ample car parking. No EV hook up observed. Very nice cafe with hot and cold menu, and good coffee. Helpful staff. Kids play area. Large lake to walk around. Been there several times in all weathers and seasons.

    Love a walk in the Park to get my steps in! On a nice day the park is beautiful especially around the lake, great for a stroll. Nice little cafe if you want a coffee etc. I park in the road right outside, usually enough spaces and so far have felt safe and comfortable in the park even with headphones on!

    One of the best parks in the Midlands! Genuinely a beautiful place for everyone to enjoy. If you're in the Midlands for even just a few hours, I can only recommend you visit Walsall Arboretum! πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ

    I was visiting the Arboretum for a Classic Car show, so I only saw the main area. But I liked what I saw, it seemed well kept and quite green following the recent heavy rain and I would like to return another time and have a proper look around.

    Absolutely beautiful place to go with family. Went for a long walk around the whole park with young children. People are friendly, and dogs are on leashes, or the owners are considerate and keep their dogs away from children. The park was clean, and the scenery was breathtaking, especially the little bridges, waterfalls, and trails. There are pigeons, ducks, and swans in the lake. The play was clean, and the equipment was in good condition. Overall, it is a great atmosphere for going for a walk or taking children for a play around.

    Really beautiful and clean. Peaceful and relaxing! Lost my drone in the middle of some stinger bushes, what a nightmare to get back lol

    I love love love this place! Just lovely! There have a fully green and happening environment... A combination of green field, so many walkways, playgrounds for all ages, benches and a nice lake with lots of swan πŸ₯° You can spend a great time here with friends, family or only yourself. Can also arrange a picnic here. This place will never disappoint you.

  • 5/5 Donna W. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a lovely place for a walk. I only walked from one side of the arboretum to the other, but you could easily get a load of miles in here. Plenty of runners, dog walkers and kids cycling around. The paths are decent and the path alongside the stream in the middle is currently being redone. There's a few sculptures in this place which was nice to see, a visitor centre which I never went in and a massive carpark at one end. Well worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Amy W. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely great place to visit! I've been here so many times throughout the years and find it's the perfect place for a walk around the park, it's pretty big but you could just walk around the lake. Perfect for joggers as there are often running events om a Saturday morning and other running events for charity, great place for dog walkers and anyone with children as there is a big playground area with a splash pad that opens in the summer. The arboretum is a popular place and lovely to just go for a picnic with friends or family, there's never any need to worry about getting a patch of grass with a blanket or a bench as the areas are so big and plenty of hidden areas to explore!

  • 5/5 Ian S. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful and relaxing, ideal for a lunchtime walk or even a bit of exercise. Particularly enjoy Parkrun on a Saturday morning at 9am. It's free, lots of friendly people and you can get a coffee afterwards

  • 5/5 Matthew W. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice relaxing place to visit with lots of free activities to participate in. Tennis (need to book a court online), table tennis, basket ball, water park, playground and lovely gardens.

  • 5/5 Pete S. 2 years ago on Google
    My partner and I went to this classic car meet. I must say that after not going anywhere for a long time due to Covid-19 and shutdowns, it was a perfect day out with nice weather, bear, food and cars πŸ‘

  • 5/5 Kay G. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely park with lake, well maintained flower beds, play area, tennis courts and outdoor exercise area. Really nice green space in Walsall.

  • 5/5 Howie A. D. 2 years ago on Google
    A lovely and peaceful place to be. With a park, cafe and lake it's a definite formula for a great day out...
