Festival Gardens

At Otterspool Promenade see stunning views across the River Mersey and beyond. Pass through Festival Gardens, a former household refuse site which was transformed into the UK’s first ever International Garden Festival in 1984.  The festival was a concept designed to attract visitors to the city and during its five months of displaying an array of horticulture, a staggering 3.4 million people visited the site.

In recent years, a large section of the gardens was developed for residential housing, whilst the remaining gardens fell into disrepair. In 2010 work commenced to transform the gardens to a place for leisure and recreation with boardwalks and woodland trails. As you cycle through the gardens, look out for unique features including fine-looking  pagodas, a Moon Wall, ornamental lakes, waterways and waterfalls.

Leaving the former Garden Festival site, cycle  through Princes Park, a historic public park covering 45 hectares and located in the South of Liverpool. Designed by the renowned architects  Sir Joseph Paxton and Sir James Pennethorne, and opened in 1842, Princes Park is Grade II Listed.
