Lovely park..gets busier in the late afternoon to evenings. Lovely sunsets. Can hire a boat from the boat house if you wish. Small waterfall & lots of birds/wildlife. Mornings are best as not crowded at all.

The Rye is one of the best parks in High Wycombe. The fun fair is in town now. There is a football pitch and a playground for the children.

Gorgeous park. Huge green space within easy walk of the town centre. Has two playgrounds for little ones, a café, lots of places to sit and relax on a a sunny day. Beautiful pond with ducks and swans. The lido (open air swimming pool) is situated in the park also. The Rye is a lovely place to sit, walk or run, and easily the nicest part of the town.

One of the local gems in the High Wycombe area, includes a large water dyke at the top of the rye. Which also hosts the river wye which actually runs though the town connecting to the park the rye. This park also includes a cafe which was newly added with lots of seating areas. Benches run across the rye park from top to bottom so lots of seating areas. This area and park also hosts 2 children's play parks. One is gated for younger kids, and then a newly built adventure park which is well equipped. This place and area is great for walks, exercise running. Cycling. The rye hosts weekend run clubs. You also have wycombe lido gym. Which is great for summer occasions as it has a outdoor swimming pool. At the back near to the dyke there is also a nice waterfall feature and a small pond area. This park hosts a wide range of animals including. I would say its a lovely place and most visit often
