Delemere Forest Cheshire

Used to go here as a kid, but have never took a dog there until today.
Coco loved it, goes on for miles its massive.
Loads of other people taking their dogs for walks.
Will upload a pic later


Delamere Forest Park comprises over 950 hectares of mixed deciduous and evergreen forest, open grassland and wetlands. It is the largest wooded area in Cheshire and lies within the Mersey Forest. Blakemere Moss has become an excellent habitat for a wide variety of wildlife and is particularly popular with ornithologists.
Delamere offers the complete day out for all the family, with a wide range of facilities including bike hire, cafe, shop, Visitor Centre Go Ape! high ropes course and many car parks, picnic sites and viewpoints

How to get there:
Situated approximately 10 miles from the outskirts of Chester and close to the M56. The forest park is well sign posted from the A54, A556 and B5152.
BY RAIL
Delamere station is situated on the outskirts of the forest and is a 5 minute walk from the Visitor centre.

If your coming from Liverpool, then just go over the Runcorn bridge and follow signs for Frodsham.
