Lakeside Walks
RIDE AVAILABILITY
Weekdays: OPEN Weekends: OPENOur Lakeside Walks are looking lovelier than ever.
In 2013, Wicksteed Park was successful in achieving Heritage Lottery Funding to support The Wicksteed Charitable Trust’s ambitious £3 million pound Lake Restoration Project, ‘to restore it to its former glory as the focal point of the Park.’ The project aimed to restore the character of the lake, reinstate views, enhance habitats for its flora and fauna, and increase access around it.
It’s the heart of our park and by taking a walk around the lake you can see so much wildlife and nature. With shingle beaches, a pontoon, nature spots and the arboretum for you to enjoy and some of the best views of the park. And of course, don’t forget to wave to the train when it toots by!

Wicksteed Charitable Trust
The Wicksteed Charitable Trust receives no regular external funding to help maintain the park as a truly unique, freely accessible public space.
You can help to preserve the park for future generations by making donations. All money raised is used to help maintain the park and its grounds.
“We all know that pleasurable exercise is good for the mind and for the body. I have good reason to believe that the park I have formed in Kettering has changed the lives for the better.”
Charles Wicksteed.
