Map of Dawsholm Park MapDawsholm Park Map

Dawsholm Park could well be described as ‘the nature lover’s park’ as there is much of interest to the nature enthusiast here. Large areas of the park have been left in a natural state.

There is a permanent orienteering course here.

Information about the area.

STAG first used this park in 1999 for a Night Event and it proved to be a resounding success.
The former nature trail has been converted into the permanent orienteering course and one can expect to take approximately 40 minutes to walk the whole course.
A tricky venue despite its relatively small size.
Course checked October 2008. 100% ok.
Rhododendron clearing in operation September 2008. Posts need to be repainted hopefully Winter 2008.

72 acres in area.
