Spike Island Great Sankey Canal
As The Ferry Tavern Is In The Middle Of Spike Island Widnes And Sankey Valley Park Warrington I Find It The Best Place To Park As There Is Free Parking And A Dog Friendly Pub. From The Ferry Tavern You Can Choose Which Way You Want To Walk, Widnes Or Warrington But Both Paths Will Be Flat And About 4 Miles Until You Reach Nice Open Areas Ideal For Playing With Your Companion Then Walk Back Down To The Dog Friendly Tavern For Refreshments For Yourself Before You Leave. Very Nice Day Out For A Long Walker.

Beautiful In All Seasons. Small Woodland Which Is Separated By A Road But Linked By A Bridge Which You Can Walk Under If You Have Your Wellies. Fantastic Off The Lead, Lots Of Things For The Kids To Get Stuck Into, Rope Swings Etc, But For Our Four Legged Family Members Just A Brilliant Place For Them To Roam Around. The Winding Brook Offers Wet Play Or Some Where To Cool Off After Running Around All The Time. You Can Walk It In 30 - 40 Minutes, But I’M Always There For A Few Hours.

Grappenhall Heys
Situated In A Very Nice Sybhurb Just South Of Warrington. The Best Place To Park Is By The Walled Garden On Astor Drive. On Sunny Sundays It Can Get Quite Busy. Head East Along The Walled Garden This Is A Paved Area Which Then Opens Out To A Field Which Can Be A Little Bit Boggy At Times. This Then Leads To Acopsed Area And Two Large Open Fields Which Is Great For Exercising The Poochies
