Walk Route
Lurgan Park
We walk here quite often and it is possible to walk around the park in about 30 minutes.
There are lots of birds to be seen throughout the park.
There is a good playpark for the children too.
The council look after the park well and it is unusual to see litter or dog fouling.
It can be very busy on the weekends but is definitely worth a visit if in the area.
