Kingsbury Water Park
This park is a miracle of good planning, created out of spent gravel pits in the mid-seventies. There are 15 lakes in 620 acres of leisure space here, and the paths are surfaced so it's a fine all weather walk.
Maps and info are available from the information desk, but essentially this is a space where it is very comfortable to amble at will and there is something to suit everyone.
The Heart of England long distance footpath runs through the park, joining Staffordshire with the Cotswolds.
