About

Rawcliffe Country Park in York offers a refreshing escape into nature with its blend of open fields and wooded areas, perfect for leisurely walks and exploration. Ideal for families and pet owners, the park features play areas equipped with a climbing rock and a pump track for added adventure. It's also a welcoming spot for picnics, with various areas to spread out and relax. Keep your eyes peeled for the occasional sighting of deer roaming gracefully through the park. Seasonal events like bonfire nights and firework displays bring an element of celebration to the atmosphere, marked by conspicuous yellow signs for upcoming happenings.

While the park's charm is undeniable, visitors should remain considerate by properly disposing of dog waste, given limited bins. Dog owners will appreciate the pet-friendly environment, but should be ready for possibly muddy trails. Also, be aware of potential off-putting odors due to the proximity to a sewage treatment plant. Despite these niggles, the vibrant appeal and copious activities maintain an impressive 4.4 average rating from visitors looking for both entertainment and relaxation in a natural setting.

Great country park, big long bike and walking paths open to all. Bike park and a good children’s playground.
