Sefton Park is a big park in south Liverpool with lawns, woodland, and a large boating lake. This 3.5 km loop circles the park on paved paths and gravel tracks, passing the Palm House and the main lake. Flat, easy to follow, and popular with walkers, runners, and dog owners. Pair it with the waterfront Liverpool Docks run if you want city landmarks after the park, or cross to the Wirral for the Wallasey to West Kirby coastal walk.
