Outdoor sports

Get involved and get fit outdoors with BMX-ing, book a football pitch, basketball or tennis court and find out where the outdoor gyms are.

Fishing

Burgess Park Lake has an excellent reputation for coarse fishing and is well stocked with carp, roach, tench and bream. The lake is set out with a clearly defined angling area. Fishing is not permitted in the wildlife habitat area.

You’ll need to buy a day ticket to fish in Burgess Park.
