Pictures as 'first of its kind' new children's bike park and adventure playground opened at scenic Leeds park

Young cyclists can now get to grips with the rules of the road after the opening of a brand new children’s bike park in Leeds.

Designed to replicate features of real road layouts - the first of its kind in Leeds - the bike park is set within Temple Newsam Park Golf Course and offers plenty of fun challenges including traffic lights, give way lines and a level crossing.

Children of all ages and abilities can develop their confidence, riding skills and ability to read traffic signs throughout the course, which even has its own stone hump bridge designed to replicate the real stone bridge found within the extensive grounds of Temple Newsam.

Alongside the bike park, visitors can also enjoy a brand new adventure playground. Offering a toddler sandpit, an adventure trail and a climbing forest the playground promises to be a fun experience for children of all ages and abilities.

The updates to the golf and activity park also come with a new community café serving light bites and drinks, with a patio overlooking the grounds.

The golf club, set within Temple Newsam’s historic parkland offers two nine-hole courses and the area connects easily to walking routes, open parkland and woodland paths.
