Walking Guides to Liverpool

If you’d like to show your children Liverpool but don’t know where to start, the Curious About Liverpool walking guides can show you around some of the most interesting areas of the city including art installations, museums and good places to eat. The guides are a great introduction to the city and choose routes that are friendly to pushchairs and buggies if you’re travelling with younger children.

Parks in Liverpool

If you fancy taking the children away from the city to enjoy some open-air fun, Liverpool hosts some truly great parks that are sure to provide hours of relaxation and entertainment for all ages. Sefton Park is Liverpool’s largest at 235 acres and includes a boating lake and a large playground. If you’d prefer to do some cycling, the Wirral Way is a 10-mile-long cycle track and walkway with unspoilt view of the nearby areas with plenty of opportunities to stop for lunch or an ice cream.

Radio City Tower

Radio City Tower (sometimes known as St. John’s Beacon Viewing Gallery) stands an impressive 453 feet above Liverpool, offering great views of the city and beyond. The tower lets you get a bird’s-eye-view of Liverpool, Wirral and North Wales and on clear days, even as far as Blackpool and Snowdonia.
 The tower gets its name from the two radio stations that broadcast from its upper floors; Radio City 96.7 and Magic 1543, both of which you can visit during your trip. A café can also be found on the second floor, making it probably the best spot to have lunch in the city.
