Other Routes in Liverpool, England
Rupert Lane Recreation Ground is a grassy linear park in central Liverpool with lovely paths and a good spot for hill training! Combine with a run to Stanley Park for more distance.
The Royal Albert Dock is a sight unto itself, and the many waterfront promenades here pass by statues, museums, and tourist attractions of all stripes. Do a loop or combine with the Otterspool Promenade for a long run.
Wonderful waterfront running in the southern part of Liverpool. The Otterspool Promenade multi-use path stretches for 6 km along the River Mersey. Additional waterfront paths at the Speke and Garston Coastal Reserve, and between Pickering Pasture and West Bank.
The Wirral Circular Trail is a 35 mile circuit around the Wirral Peninsula, the rectangular spit of land that sits due west of Liverpool. We’ve pointed to some of the best running highlights on the peninsula.
The 346 km Trans Pennine Trail stretches coast to coast across England, hitting some of the top historic cities and sights along the way. About 17 km of paved pathway runs right through Liverpool, between New Hall and Speke.
Located just 11 km north of Liverpool Center, Crosby Beach is a fantastic destination run. A wide seaside promenade runs along the coast where the River Mersey meets the Irish Sea. Includes loop around Marine Lake and good add-on options.
This 200 acre park has miles of meandering asphalt pathways around the lakes and fields. We’ve mapped a 5k highlights loop. Good add-ons with Princes Park and a detour to the famous Penny Lane!
Newsham Park is a 121 acre Victorian-era park in the east of Liverpool, near Fairfield. A loop around the park is 3.5 km, but the surrounding neighborhood is also great for exploring.
Calderstones Park is the homebase of the Mossley Hill Running Club. We’ve mapped a 5 km tour of the park, but feel free to branch out into the surrounding neighborhoods of Childwall and Woolton. Bonus: see Strawberry Field!
The towpaths of the Liverpool and Leeds Canal span far enough to satisfy any long distance runner. Our favorite section is through Rimrose Valley Country Park in northern Liverpool.
