Fantastic space to jog, walk, or sit and do nothing. The park is flat and in the middle is a beautiful lake. Have only walked around the lake, so I'm not too sure what is beyond. There is also a nice restaurant near the entrance with toilet facilities and for what I've seen, the food doesn't look too bad. Went there yesterday (Sunday) and was very busy. They had to use the overflow car park, but there was still plenty of space.
Not too sure for how long but there is this very large wipe out assault course in the water you can attempt but if you want something more leisurely, you can hire these 4-person push peddle carts to ride around the park or hire out peddelows.
There are two play areas, one for the smaller and next to that is a large climbing frame for the older kids with rock climbing a bit further long the path.
The Ringo parking app is used here.
We are just so very lucky to have this beautiful place right on top of us and sometimes we forget how gorgeous it really is here.
There are lots of natural routes to take for amazing wildlife.
There is also the lake where you can do water sports.
There is so much to do for kids with a play house and there are places to eat and drink and even enjoy and alcoholic beverage.
They also have a wedding venue and at certain times of the year a fun fair.
It is worth taking a stroll and seeing what you come across and also lovely for a dog walk.
Brilliant area for adults and kids. Nice lake and they have loads of parking facilities including disable bays. Visited while there was a fun fair there. Kids loved it. Not huge but just the right size to go on all the rides.
Also have owls play centre and lake view marquee for a function. You can sit and enjoy the views or even have a picnic. Overall great local day out with the family.
It was nice park. I went there to do birdwatching. There are several trails for hiking. There is a water sport for kids. A nice cafe. Restrooms. Lush greenery. What else is needed in a park. Easily accessible as well.
Wonderful landscape, must visit place for running and picnic place. It’s full green , lots of trees and multiple trails.you can find multiple lakes and lots of ducks roaming there .you can go to Fairlop either by bus or car or nearest station is barking station.
It has nice cafeteria as well where u can variety of food and coffee.for running you can explore inside trails as well..
Fairlop offers a lot of activities for families around the lake area, however for hiking is not ideal. The country park part is quite unkept with litters and a lot of still brown waters
Update, still the same, driving schools driving around and around our cars which we have paid to park. Today, three driving schools when i arrived.
Update....Why are driving schools still being allowed to teach learners in Fairlop Waters car parks driving around our cars? ????
Seems like lots of driving schools think it is acceptable to do their lessons on private car parks. Today yet another ????
Note on bottom of sign, parking at own risk. Learner driver hits your car.....too bad!
I've paid my parking. Have you?
I went with my family to aqua bounce we all had great fun, the place has lots of parking. Nice water attractions, place to eat, lovely views and a great picinick area, it also has owl's which is a indoor ball play area for kids
