Nene Park and Ferry Meadows

A vast country park of lakes, meadows, woodland and riverside paths offering walking, cycling, watersports and family adventures.

Ferry Meadows is the best-known part of Nene Park, with water, open grassland and woodland close to Peterborough. Paths lead through different habitats and offer a choice between a short family outing and a longer walk or cycle ride. The lakes and river give the park its changing character across the seasons, while the wider park connects urban Peterborough with the Nene Valley landscape. It is an easy place to slow down, watch wildlife and understand how central the river is to the city’s sense of place.
