About this park
Beacon Fell Country Park, near Preston in Lancashire, offers 185 acres of spectacular woodland and moors, with panoramic views over the Forest of Bowland and Morecambe Bay. Dogs are most welcome, and while they should be kept on a lead in the main visitor areas, car park, and through livestock fields, there are plenty of pathways and routes where they can enjoy a good run off-lead, particularly within the designated woodland sections. Follow the waymarked trails for an easy exploration of the park's natural beauty. The park boasts a variety of terrain, from open fellside to dense woodland, including a popular sculpture trail that adds an interesting twist to your walk. There are routes suitable for all energy levels, from gentle strolls perfect for older dogs to more strenuous climbs to the summit for a rewarding view. Ample free parking is available, as the pay-and-display machines are frequently out of order, and bins are provided for convenience. After your walk, you'll find accessible toilets near the visitor centre. While there isn't a dedicated dog washing station or cafe mentioned, the stunning scenery and varied walks make Beacon Fell a beloved destination for a peaceful outing with your canine companion.
