Parks, Walks and Gardens
The picturesque riverside is only a few minutes’ walk from the town centre with amazing views and the promise of tranquility. A relaxing area for a picnic, or a memorable moment for children feeding the ducks. Or for a summer treat, listen to a brass band on a Sunday afternoon with our popular bandstand concerts.
Relax in the peaceful Jubilee Gardens featuring a Georgian Bath House, visit the multi Green Flag award-winning Sandringham Park or, for younger visitors, make use of one of the many playgrounds. For walkers and cyclists, the Harland Way is a must with the disused railway line providing off-road links between Spofforth and Thorp Arch. Test your skills in our two bike parks, suitable for both junior
(Little Toe) and senior riders (Devil’s Toenail). Park at Station Car Park.
Walkers are spoilt for choice. Take a look at the interactive map below to follow the trails or find a favourite park or garden. There are also three printed walking guides to Wetherby.
The Historical Town Trail gives the reader a fascinating short walk around the centre of the town pointing out some interesting historical details. The Blue Plaque Trail takes the visitor around 21 interesting features in the town. During the summer months, the Floral Town Trail indicates the magnificent work of the multi award-winning Wetherby in Bloom Group.
