Oldham is a land of contrasts, from Pennine moorland and wooded river valleys to canals and historic public parks. Oldham’s Parks have been judged to be amongst the best in the country, yet many people don’t fully appreciate the benefits to them or the work that is involved in maintaining our Parks and Open Spaces to a high standard.

By exploring this website, you can discover the facilities and features of the Parks and green spaces across the borough. This website has been launched to encourage more people to explore and visit Oldham’s parks, countryside and open spaces. Walkers, horse riders, canal enthusiasts, cyclists, families with young children or those who just want to take it easy, will all find something to interest them.

Use the interactive Park Finder to view maps and layouts. Many parks also have panoramic vistas and slideshows to view!
