Not difficult to find,a sign outside, when entered,could see the visitors reception? Not open,there is a car park,big enough,it was some cars there. Just a few yards a large reservoir, with lots of ducks,swans, Coots,and other birds. Fir the first time had the opportunity to see a Khaki Campbell duck. In the middle of the reservoir there are small isles,for support duck species or others? Difficult to see what for. Walked along, noticed you can fishing. Thera are some trails,some really easy to walk and some not so. Used different paths. Lots of different specimen of trees. Lots of birds,could be good for bird watching. Several people walking dogs. Saw some picnic tables and many benches around. It's a good Park for residents to pass a few hours there. Didn't see any playground. Didn't see any toilets as well. · via Google [Sharmishtha Ghangrekar](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/112232819959975021460/reviews) ★★★★★ A place of tranquility and a way to find connection with nature in the middle of built up Walkden. Really worth a visit to listen to the birds, walk your dog or just watch the ripples on the lake. · via Google [Lea Molineux](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/112707163259260135318/reviews) ★★★★★ A beautiful place to visit to chill and unwind whilst enjoying the picturesque surroundings · via Google [Shahid Channa](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/112498235757803149666/reviews) ★★★★★ Such a huge park with beautiful sunset and place for 100s of bird species · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x487ba8a31589f2bd:0x62dc1ca8dead74e2!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** John Street, Walkden, Manchester, M28 3TD [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=53.5326946%2C-2.3944544) **Category** Parks & Play Areas **Guest rating** 4.4 / 5 (964 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 4+ **Setting** Outdoor **Dogs allowed** Yes **Good for children** Yes **Destination** Walkden [More attractions in Walkden](https://staycation.co.uk/walkden/attractions) ★ 4.4 (964 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.salford.gov.uk/blackleach.htm?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [0161 790 7746](tel:01617907746) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Walkden **Postcode** M28 3TD **Plus Code** 9C5VGJM4+36 [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x487ba8a31589f2bd:0x62dc1ca8dead74e2!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487ba8a31589f2bd:0x62dc1ca8dead74e2!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487ba8a31589f2bd:0x62dc1ca8dead74e2!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Walkden Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
