Riverside park in a natural amphitheatre with a Japanese water garden, Sebastopol cannon and a cafe.
Stunning park, absolute credit to the grounds people. Japanese gardens beautiful. Such a relaxing walk, everyone seems to be chilled here, friendly and chatty. Local pub (continental) at one end or dog friendly cafe on the park (although they are missing a trick in not selling any dog treats, this would boost your profits given how busy you get with doggy visitors) Plenty of parking. Lots of families enjoying the last bits of nice weather. Football played at weekends. Guild wheel passes through so be mindful of the cyclists who seem to think everyone should move for them, other than the ignorant riders this is a top notch park.
I love this place very much. It's great for some alone time. You can walk or you can sit and enjoy the view. This park is very big you can play, walk, sit and watch the river. It's my favourite place. In my pic it was evening time. If you like to see the sun then you have to go early .
Avenham Park is a stunning green space nestled below the city centre of Preston. There is a cafe, riverside walk and various opportunities to join organised group exercise with www.ozonefit.co.uk and Parkrun.
What a wonderful park so close to the town centre. Lovely river walks, Japanese garden, lots of interesting Victorian park eccentricities. And cross the bridge and you're in countryside. This park never fails to fill me with joy. Gorgeous. Fab cafe with great coffee too.
Lovely park respectfully used by most. Nice walk along edge of river or just sit and enjoy. Park is a bit hilly but something for everyone. Cafe looks nice food is nice but be prepared to queue. Queued for hot food only yo be told to come back in 30 mins as they were too busy ( hardly anyone in, basically everyone wanted ice creams but it was the same queue. No organisation.) Park however lovely and toilets in cafe and separate block in Park.
Always great walking in these parks no matter what the time of the year it is. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the pathways on the opposite side of the river have had a major upgrade. You can now easily walk to the Capitol Centre on a tarmac path, so no more dodging puddles and mud. Brilliant work done by Preston Council.
