Explore the stunning landscapes of Merseyside with these beautiful winter walks featuring wildlife, woodland, and coastal views.
Grab your big coat and spend the day wandering through lush areas of greenery, fauna and wildlife. All across Merseyside are parks and beaches perfect for winter walks to wash away the January blues. If you know where to look, there are hidden gems bursting with beauty. Despite a few strong winds and light showers, and maybe even snow around this time of year, you shouldn't be deterred from enjoying the scenic locations Merseyside has to offer.
Pathways vary in length and even occupy some furry friends who call the areas home. You can power through quickly on a workout jog or lose yourself for hours along the way. Below are some gorgeous areas perfect for a wildlife walk. This stretch of the Sefton coastline takes you through plenty of woodland and farmland. It starts by the River Alt, which attracts much bird life and passes the Liverpool - Southport railway line. Again, it’s well-signposted and it will take you to Victoria Road – where you can debate which is your favourite big house – and the entrance to the National Trust attraction, your gateway to a glorious beach surrounded by pinewoods where you can discover red squirrels, natter jacks and prehistoric footprints amid an ever-changing landscape. Or, if you want to save all this for another time, you can head to Freshfield station – or maybe even take a little diversion to the award-winning Freshfield Hotel on Massam’s Lane. Distance: Five miles Approx time: Two hours Just outside Liverpool is a flat circular walk perfect for all ages and abilities. The path goes through beautiful wild flowers and takes you along the coast providing great views across the Mersey. The route begins in the village of Hale. Follow the footpath down to the Mersey towards the lighthouse which sits on a sandstone cliff overlooking the beaches. It dates back to 1838 and was originally marked the Southernmost point of Lancashir
