The Ranger Service welcomes all groups wishing to visit the Park and are happy to arrange a guided walk or any other environmental activity.

 

Ranger Service

For information help and advice, speak to the Countryside Rangers who care for the park and its visitors.  Rangers can be easily recognised by their badge which bears the National Ranger Symbol.

The visitor centre offers a variety of displays on the history and wildlife of the Country Park.

The Ranger Service runs a varied programme of events throughout the year to suit all ages.  Full details of forthcoming events can be found in the visitor centre.

The Ranger Service runs a series of activity clubs for children from pre-school to 14 years of age to learn more about the environment.

 

Schools & Colleges

School and College groups are welcome all year where the variety of habitats within the park provide excellent opportunities for environmental education, and nature study.  Rangers are available to work with classes and provide teachers with advice and assistance. The Rangers can also visit schools to give illustrated talks. Teachers planning environmental activities are encouraged to discuss their ideas with the Ranger Service who will tailor activities to meet the needs of individual classes.
