Walk, run, cycle, small BMX track kids playground, supervised water fountains (in summer), lake, wildlife, cafe the list goes on. Acres of wonderful parkland just outside Walsall town centre...a must to visit.

Went here with a friend to have a wander round. The only downside on the day was that the restaurant was really slow serving food as there was only one person serving and the kitchen seemed to be very short staffed as well, so we waited about 45 minutes for a bowl of soup! But the arboretum itself is a beautiful and tranquil spot in the middle of a very busy area! I knew of its existence but had never been and went round with a friend on my mobility scooter-access is very good! I would recommend it as a place for a short walk when you need a bit of green space in a busy schedule: the water area has lots of ducks and geese so was fun to watch, and the general feeling is one of peace, even though it is by the very busy ring road and near to traffic. You hear the traffic noise, so it is not entirely quiet, but this is muffled by the many trees and hedges, and it is well worth a visit!

As there was no admission fees to be paid, as well as no parking fee although I feel that on a busy day, finding a parking space would be tricky, the arboretum is a great way to spend some time outdoors whether for walking or cycling without breaking the bank. Some paths can be a bit muddy on rainy days but most of the foot paths are well paved. There are some local clubs devoted to walking, cycling, and juggling based here so if you fancy joining one, look them up on some local adverts posted online or at the Central Library (I don't know however, if those clubs charge some membership fees so better enquire). There are large man made ponds with wild fowl although the groundskeeping staff advise that the wildfowl be fed with seeds (available for sale at the Information Centre) instead of bread scraps.

I like to come here to get a bit of cycling done after work. During these winter months it's rather dark when I get home, but the park is adequately lit. It is also very quiet as all the amenities are closed during the late hours.

Gorgeous park. My eldest loves the splash pad, whilst my toddler loves the slides. They have something for all ages. I hadn't been since I was young and was shocked at how much it's changed.....definitely for the better. Parking is all the way at the one end of the park, which is quite far if you have trouble walking, but there is a land train available. Not sure it the train is there all the time though. Perfect for bike rides or a nice stroll.

The Arboretum could have easily been left and forgotten but somebody in Walsall council had a head rush and came up with a good idea (rare I know) of investing money in it, and it's paid off, it's clean and pleasant to be in, safe as anywhere can be these days, the only negative is the cafe, although very nice food and friendly staff the purchasing process is painfully slow leading to long queues quite regularly.

Very enjoyable with plenty of good walkways with clean surfaces (odd one a little muddy), but most tarmac.
Would imagine it would be even better in the late spring / summer.

I went for a walk around the Walsall Arboretum to get some exercise and fresh air. It was very peaceful. There are many paths and play areas. There is a tennis court, bowling green, outside exercise apparatus, boating pool, children's playground and a restaurant. There is a bandstand and lots of seating around the park. It would be a great place in summer for a picnic. Take your camera and walking shoes!

Really good sized town park with play areas a tourist information area with a cafe. Not sure what the cafe is like.
There is often something on one week to the next. But also a nice walk. Parking is limited but there are some free spaces. However they are time limited and warden patrolled.
