Jumbles Country Park
Waterfold car park, Bradshaw Road, Bradshaw, Bolton, BL2 4JS · Bolton & Bury
This United Utilities country park north of Bolton, opened by the Queen in 1971, wraps around Jumbles Reservoir with a relatively easy, flat circular walk that's suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs. There's a cafe by the car park, plus kingfishers and woodpeckers to spot, a dam viewing area, and sailing and fishing on the water. Bromley Cross train station is nearby if you'd rather not drive.
Spark Hub tip: The Waterfold car park has limited hours (10.30am-4.30pm), so plan your walk around them; the circuit has a few short climbs.
