About Itchen Valley Country Park

Itchen Valley Country Park We have 440 acres of beautiful water meadows, woodland and meadows that , for the past 3 years, have been recognised by the award of a Green Flag.
There is a Visitor Centre with nature-based displays, a shop and toilets. There is also a Cafe for you to enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake after following one of our many waymarked trails around the Park.
Picnics are encouraged and there are many tables throughout the Park. There are two large permanent barbecue sites are available for hire for parties.
There is a charge for parking, although annual and seasonal (4 month) permits are available to purchase from the Visitor Centre.
The Meadows Nature Trail is approximately 2 miles long and takes you around the historic SSSI Water Meadow where you can still make out the mounds that marked the man-made channels.
The Play Trail is a short walk for the children with play equipment for them to climb on. For a longer walk, try out 2-mile (approx)Totem Trail to try and find the four carved wooden totem poles in various locations around the park.
Our Woodland Nature Reserve is particularly stunning in the Spring when the bluebells are out in the coppiced areas. These are quickly followed by many different wild flowers for you to spot.
