Brixworth Country Park

Brixworth Country Park opened in 1997 and lies next to Pitsford Water in Northamptonshire.
 Brixworth Country Park is a national showpiece for an accessible countryside. This small yet perfectly formed park offers great possibilities if you want to picnic, walk, push or cycle in woodland, meadow and stunning reservoir surroundings.
 There are three short circular routes round the park – Kestrel, Lapwing and Skylark – all signed and colour-coded and ranging from 550 yards to just over a mile. The paths are hard surfaced, with some undulations but no steep gradients, so regular wheelchair users should be able to manage independently or with a little assistance. You can stroll quietly through the woods and meadows, or pause to watch from the accessible viewing hide, where you may catch a glimpse of wildlife, including foxes, squirrels, waterfowl and woodland birds. For a more challenging half-day adventure, the walking routes also give access to a 7.5-mile circuit around the Pitsford Reservoir.
