    Such a beautiful place whether taking kids for the park and to feed the ducks. Or to gonfor a walk intonthe woods. Everywhere was clean, tidy and looked after. Lots for the kids to play on. Esposito's is a lovely little cafe with very reasonable prices which was a godsend where everything else is so expensive. Staff are lovely and their iced coffee is lovely.

    Park with cafe and model boating lake. Great for kids of all ages. There are tennis courts and lots of playing fields. The woods through Runcorn Hill are great for exploring and the whole area feels very safe. There are a number of well sign posted running trails of different lengths. The play area has lots of variety and a fenced area for younger kids. There's lots of free parking available.

    Absolutely fantastic walk with the kids. Just need to keep an eye out as there are some very steep drops and not suitable for pushchairs or less able bodied people but if you fancy a bit of a gentle hike it is awesome.

    Beautiful park and nature reserve in Runcorn. On one side there's a formal park with a play area, lake, cafe, playing fields and carpark. On the other side is woodland walks, tennis courts, bowling green, wetland area and bandstand.

    Great Park for walk and children. Just terrible for parking, yellow lines every where car park that only holds small amount of cars other three were closed one due to workers other I think because someone lost padlock key, other is Vip only for football players so we were left to park on the side of the road which makes it difficult to get to the park and little unsafe as people are looking for spots not people or children crossing, I would hate to live here with the lack of parking which is causing overload of cars parking on roads outside houses and driveways need more parking to be opened for visitors.

    Lovely park, lots to do and plenty of space for the little ones to run round in. Cafe and pond are bonus features

  • 5/5 Tomasz P. 10 months ago on Google
    Very nice place for a family walk. If you fancy historic post industrial places, this will definitely be your point on the map :)

  • 5/5 Philip O. 10 months ago on Google
    Went for a huge hike around the hills, and I was very happy to find the cafe as I was knackered and needed my caffeine fix lol, but it was just as I remembered from when I was young and I would still continue coming here even when I am old

  • 5/5 Mandy J. 10 months ago on Google
    Esposito do lovely cakes and generous size cups of tea. Runcorn hill is fab nature walk and the park has lots of equipment for all age ranges. The boat club sail their boats on certain days. Parking is free.

  • 5/5 Melanie C. 10 months ago on Google
    A great park to sit and relax in, or you can stretch your legs around the pond and watch the ducks on the pond , also there's a great cafe there called Espetos. So if you fancy a coffee or an ice cream or a tasty snack then this is the place for you. The staff are friendly aswell.

  • 4/5 Andrew G. 9 months ago on Google
    A much improved little place over last couple years. A nice little place to take a little walk around.

  • 5/5 Sue B. 1 year ago on Google
    Always nice to walk round. So many different kinds of trees and lots of visual interest.

  • 5/5 Claire B. 5 months ago on Google
    I've been visiting this place for 30 odd years and it's one of my favourite places. There's a large pond with ducks, a large play area, a quarry to walk in, a cafe, fields to play football etc on and there are horse fields that you can walk through. If you head towards Highlands Road, there is a bowls green, tennis court and pitch n putt

    Took my Dad to Esposito's for a cuppa and cake. We sometimes have a walk round the lake or through the woods. Other family members often come with us and bring the dog.

  • 5/5 Darren C. 4 months ago on Google
    Great place to walk the dog, short hike around runcorn hill, couple a parks for the kids, large pond used by the model boat club on Wednesdays. If you just want a brew & bite to eat, the cafe is highly recommend πŸ‘Œ

  • 5/5 David H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for a walk of about 1.3 hours. Abundant flora and fauna, tennis courts (free to use), boating lake (for model boats) and kids play area surround a park steeped in industrial history. Free parking and a great cafe serving hot and cold food, Ice creams and good coffee is well worth a visit. Take care around cliff tops as it is an old quarry site with unfenced drops.

  • 5/5 Sharmini J. 5 years ago on Google
    Beautiful place. Lots of trails & places with views so perfect you'd think it's fake ! On a clear day, you can see Liverpool Airport from the hill.

    Typical old days park with duck pond, sports, bowls and children's play areas. Extensive area for football etc. Modern facilities including cafe, toilets etc. Lots of parking does over 4 or five small areas. Tonight was a Halloween light walk, free for everyone and put together by lots of local families. We spent a pleasant hour wandering around with lots of other happy people. Great
