Zoo in Birkenhead

“Lovely place for circular walk amongst the trees, with interesting history and fantastic little quirky cafe.”

“Really great area for walks, runs, or walking the dog. It has a perfect balance between accessible walkways and nature. Able to claim the summit to get great views from up high, but even without hiking to the top, simply walking alongside the river Mersey allows a beautiful view of the Liverpool skyline. Famous landmarks are visible such as the Cathedral and the Liver building. To the side of the park is a small beach area.”

“All types of terrain for all ages and abilities. A hidden gem, fallen trees left alone, nothing manicured and well maintained path, step and boardwalks. If you are passing through this neck of the country, would highly recommend.”

“Can't believe it's free to visit! Food pots to feed animals only £1 each. Lovely place to spend an afternoon feeding the animals. Also has lots of hand washing stations, clean toilets, a cafe, picnic area and children's play areas. bought some lovely fresh eggs to take home too”

“A truly beautiful place to visit, lots of space to walk a dog, or play Poo-Sticks! It even has Standing Stones & stunning gates!”

“A good place to walk your dog on or off lead in a safe environment. If you have children there is a kids play area which is very popular. Don't miss the rose gardens either a nice place to walk around or if you need to sit down there are plenty of benches to sit down on.Sainsburys Aldi Home Bargain and a few little cafes within 5 minutes walk from the Oxton Fields.Well worth a visit.”

“Basic but nice place to take kids. Has pigs, rabbits, goats and a variety of birds which you can buy feed for. Lovely ice cream at reasonable price. Excellent play area and very safe. Free entry. Definitely recommend a visit for an hour or two.”
