Following the course of the River Tawd, this picturesque valley
of open grassland and established woodland runs through the heart
of Skelmersdale.
Three self guided trails help you to enjoy different aspects of the
Park.
Wildlife on Your Doorstep takes you on a route ideal to appreciate
the wildflower meadows, mature trees and hedges and butterflies and
insects.
Heritage of the Tawd looks at some of the remains of the mining
history of the valley and Geographical Discovery shows how local
landscape has been formed, and clues that can still be seen.
Taking a walk in Tawd Valley Park can be a voyage of discovery in
the midst of a bustling town, or simply a means to get away from it
all and appreciate the countryside on your doorstep.
