Rushcliffe Country Park Labyrinth

Welcome to the Labyrinth in Rushcliffe Country Park!

Labyrinths are found all around the world, but unlike a maze, which is a puzzle, a labyrinth is a journey with one continuous path winding from the entrance to the centre and back again. During surveys, local residents told us they were looking for new types of activities in the park, e.g. being alone to meditate, to celebrate an event with others, to learn new skills. A labyrinth is a well known means of providing these opportunities through gentle exercise, meditation, and activities for groups or individuals. Travelling the path facilitates games and play, parties and celebrations, meditation and prayer, dance and joy walks, problem solving and healing, faith and festivals. There is more information in the leaflets.

Where are we?

Set in the beautiful south Nottinghamshire countryside - about half a mile south of Ruddington - Rushcliffe Country Park is an ideal place to get away from it all. With a network of over 8 kilometres of footpaths, grassland, conservation and landscaped areas, the park is excellent for walking, jogging, cycling, spotting wildlife and exercising your dog.

Bring your family and a picnic and encourage your children to let off steam either by visiting the extensive play area, the magical Gibbie's Wood, or simply use the open spaces to fly a kite.
