Upton Country Park 0014
Upton Country Park is a delightful mix of parkland and woods around Upton House on the edge of Poole Inner Harbour. The azaleas in spring time are not to be missed. Courses of 0.6, 1.5 and 2.2 km are available and the short course is around a large field with good visibility, which is particularly suitable for younger children.
The park is open all the year, parking is extensive and free. Excellent toilets. Tea Room and kiosk. Also ponds, ducks & walled garden. Plenty of scope for picnics and games.
Note: this course does not have unique codes on each post. When you enter a code, you should enter the number from your map followed by the letter from the post. For example, if the map number is 12 and the control code is P, you should type 12P
