Sunnyhurst Wood & Visitors Centre

Get out into the countryside at the award winning local nature reserve on a family day out with the children, stroll through the woodland on seven miles of footpaths and circular walks of varying lengths.

Paths meander up the steeped sided valley beside Sunnyhurst Brook, past the paddling pool, over ornate bridges up to Earnsdale reservoir, onto Darwen moor, Jubilee tower and beyond.

The Olds Keeper’s Cottage now serves as a visitor centre and art gallery, where visitors can enjoy refreshments whilst picking up information on the history of this area of outstanding beauty.
