The 2 mile route following the Red Nature Trail, Yellow Pumphouse Route and the Blue Lake Walk takes a meandering route to West Stow Heath, then around the lake and along the River Lark. These are more challenging under foot (some sections are unsuitable for wheelchairs) but combined make for a lovely exploration of the whole park. (Easy Going Trail)

West Stow Country Park is located alongside the River Lark and adjacent to lakes and heathland providing a varied and fascinating day out.

With plenty to do for the whole family, the park contains 3 marked trails along the river, over the heath, around the lake and through the woods. Each uses natural paths and there are a number of benches to sit and admire the view along the way.

Children will love the excellent play area with its climbing wall and scramble net, and all the family will enjoy the fascinating, recreated Anglo Saxon Village, promoted as England’s first village; making a trip to West Stow a very full, fun and varied day out.
