Wensum Park

It is a nice park to be visited in sunny day.

Lovely little park next to the river. Nice spacious playground with train, swings, seesaws, sand pit and climbing frame with slide. At the other end of park there is another little sand pit, with climbing frame and shoots for the sand. Also a paddling pool, not sure if this gets filled up in summer though. Great spot to feed the geese, ducks and swans. Toilets as well which is always a bonus. Accessed off Marriott's way via a private gardens/walkway.

Not dog friendly. Nice gardens and very close to the river. Ideal location for family outing

A hidden gem! Love this park, cafe and playground. Accessible and perfect for any age and dogs too. Cafe was really good value and great food.

Wonderful park, with amazing plants and very special Caffee (Nice home made food, friendly staff). Our kids love this park, playground is always fun to visit. Summer time the water attractions for kids are open.
Together with my wife we love to grab a coffee and walk slowly around this park... so relaxing.
Car park sometimes is full, but plenty of spaces to park around the park.

Lovely peaceful place. Great for picnic and taking little ones to feed the ducks

Nice walk with river views, multiple kids parks and wildlife

I wanted to do an autumn photography shoot for a client. It is a lovely park with great spots for getting some really good shots

Feed the ducks ,swans.etc ...nice and relaxing place with children play area ...

Beautiful sunny afternoon in the Park for the Celebration of the Declaration of the Rights of the River Wensum

I had the pleasure of visiting Wensum Park in Norwich today, and it was an absolute delight! Tucked away from the bustling city center, this hidden gem offers a tranquil retreat for nature enthusiasts and families alike.

First and foremost, the park's natural beauty is simply breathtaking. The sprawling green fields, lush trees, and vibrant flowers create a picturesque setting that instantly puts you at ease. Walking along the serene riverbanks of the River Wensum, I felt a sense of calm and serenity wash over me. It's truly a sanctuary away from the urban chaos.

One of the highlights of Wensum Park is its well-maintained pathways and walking trails. Whether you're strolling hand-in-hand with a loved one, jogging for exercise, or simply taking a leisurely walk, the park offers a variety of paths to explore. The well-marked trails make it easy to navigate, ensuring you don't miss any of the park's hidden wonders.

For families, Wensum Park is an absolute dream. The expansive playground area boasts a wide range of equipment suitable for children of all ages. From swings and slides to climbing frames and sandpits, there's something to keep every little adventurer entertained. I also noticed several picnic tables scattered throughout the park, making it a perfect spot for a family outing or a picnic with friends.

If you're a wildlife enthusiast, Wensum Park won't disappoint. The park is teeming with diverse bird species, and I had the pleasure of spotting several ducks, swans, and even a heron during my visit. It's a great place to bring your binoculars and indulge in some birdwatching.

Another commendable feature of Wensum Park is the excellent facilities it provides. Clean and well-maintained public restrooms are conveniently located, and there are also ample benches and seating areas throughout the park where you can take a break and soak in the surroundings.

Overall, I highly recommend Wensum Park to anyone visiting Norwich. It offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, recreational activities, and tranquility. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape or a fun-filled day with your loved ones, this park has it all. I can't wait to return and spend more time in this haven of nature.

Check out the see saw!

Lovely place! Kids enjoyed it 😌

Yet another local park well looked after able to feed ducks on the pond great park for picnics and swings slides etc for a great family day out especially when the sun is shining

Lovely park, lots of birds, two playground areas. Lovely place for a walk, but I'm concerned about people mentioning dog walks in the reviews. Dogs are NOT allowed in Wensum Park to protect the waterfowl.

Not visited this park for years ..nice walk plenty of wildlife....another treasure of Norwich parks

Nice park but on a very hot day my grandchildren could not use the metal slides as they were too hot. Just something to be aware of.

Peaceful Park. Don't forget to bring something for the ducks, swans and birds

I love the place and good for some photographs...

Me and the fiancee love this place. Peaceful but not isolated. We love to chill by the water, watching the birderds, fish and paddle boarders go by. Toilets on site so can stay without worrying about toilets
