Hiking
This 104 acre park was given to Liverpool Corporation in 1895 by an anonymous city well-wisher — the reason why it is affectionately known as 'The Mystery'.
Later, it was discovered the mystery donor was Philip H. Holt whose family fortunes were made from the shipping trade, and who also owned the Sudley Estate.
Due to its proximity to Wavertree Sports Park (Aquatics, Tennis and Athletics Centre), it is a popular venue for cross country running and other sporting events.
