Such a lovely place, a hidden gem for walking and dog friendly, and a decent size of pond wild flowers look amazing. A humble request please do not throw bear cans and leave mess after BBQ.
This is a beautiful little gem for a peaceful walk. Family friendly and great for dog walkers. Wouldn't advise taking a pram as it is steep and very bumpy going down to the water from the car park. Picnic spots and seating around the lake with tranquil views.
Wasn't as big as looks on Google maps but a lovely walk. Kids paddling, ducks, dog walkers really nice (mostly clean) place. Car park gated shut but roadside parking. Picnic benches at the top walking through the slightly open gates. An idiot family had a fire going. Some steep areas, steps and a fab view from the top!
Like this Park. It's all natural. Th view of the city is amazing. It's beautiful during the daytime and is great for dogs. I wouldn't advise visiting this place at night, though. There is a small car park at the entrance.
This park is a wonderful place for day visit and have a peaceful time with family. It has 2 lakes, one is small. Lots of ducks and fish roaming around in the lake. It has woodland and walking track. There are two small hills to climb up and see the whole city from there. It is very quiet, gives tranquillity when walking. Dog friendly. Seen many sign of BBQ though official notice hanging not to do so. Altogether had a wonderful afternoon and stayed till sunset. Enjoyed thoroughly. Definitely recommend. Parking available in the street next to the GP. In park parking closed, don't know why. No toilet facilities.
Had a fab walk round with my children this morning was very quiet only see two others walk by with a dog looked tidy ,seen some ducks and swans and had a walk in the wooded area
Beautiful park with lake and mesmerising views
A really lovely tranquil place, very well kept , the grass has just been cut all the bins have been emptied , a great place to get away from it all without having to drive for miles
There is a small lake that sits in a wider basin with plenty of ducks etc. It was originally a quarry that later became a water supply reservoir for the local area until the water became contaminated and the dam was found to be unsafe. The water level is now much lower but you can still see the old water level marks carved into the stone blocks going up the bank near the bridge. Its free to enter (unlike some country parks). The car park is currently closed but there is parking along Great Horton Road - although my satnav tried to take me round the back, off Pasture Lane. It had been raining before I visited so most of the paths were quite muddy and I didnt have time (or appropriate footwear) to see most of it. There are a few negative comments about antisocial behaviour on other posts, it seemed ok when I was there, things might not be the same in warmer weather.
HORTON BANK TOP COUNTRY PARK is a beautiful relaxing place.Need to well maintain.If Bradford council maintain it nicely this place will be one of the best spot in Bradford.You can see beautiful sunset from here.If summer time you can spend your free time with family here.Nice long walking place, beautiful natural view.Big car park, large water and lots of duck.I love the rock as well.I been there many time and took some beautiful photographs. The main gate is locked for car for long time, I do not know why.Local council should work out with this place.It is a good place for fitness activities.
