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.
