Elm Park

- Worcester
Ponds, footbridges, and a more wooded section give Worcester's Elm Park a varied character.
The original public purchase dates to 1854, making its landscape part of the city's history as well as a place for walking and everyday recreation.
Park Avenue divides different parts of the park, so choose your route using the city's current map. Combine the pond-side paths with a longer walk only if the terrain and distance suit your group, and check facility notices before visiting.
