I will be visiting Liverpool for a few days in September (07) and was wondering if there are any pretty green spaces in the area. Any nice parks, open spaces, lakes for scenic boat rides?? (yes, I know I may be asking too much with that last one!)
I really like the city, but would love to escape the concrete and crowds for an hour or two. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Formby point. It's a red squirrel reserve(wooded area) with plenty of other wildlife(birds/rabbits). It's got picnic areas and you can go over the sandhills onto the beach. I live in Liverpool and spend many days here with the kids, if you're really lucky the squirrels eat out of your hand. Hope this helps and enjoy your stay in our city.

Sefton Park is lovely with the Palm House and streams and fishing lake (used to be a boating lake) and its on the 86, 82 bus route and small walk from 27 and 60 bus route if you are using public transport

Try the beach in Crosby which has the Anthony Gormley exhibit on it - Another Place. It is a really lovely beach, very calming and beautiful, with an inland salt lake just behind it for windsurfing and boating and miles of dunes. It might not be all green, but it's definitely a great place to escape! Hx

Have a look at the website link below - it's the council's listings of parks and green spaces in the city. I hope you have a lovely visit.
