Verulamium Lake — Attraction in St Albans

Been coming here since I was very small (most likely around 20-25 years) learnt to ride my bike here as well.

Really beautiful park to walk around, loads of space for activities and in the warmer weather a picnic, currently (25th March 2024) there is a large area of the park near the lake that is flooded, publice toilets are closed so you will need to use the toilets at the entrance (car park).

Love having a walk around here and the café there is great for a coffee and food, it is dog friendly.

There's a pub at the top left of the park which is a beautiful Old pub with loads of history.

The play area is great for the kids (of course) would have loved it as a kid.

Also, just a short walk away you can find St Albans Cathedral, which is home to resident Peregrines, which have nested there the last two years - Furthermore, if you are lucky you may see a kingfisher along the small river Ver running alongside the lake. The reason this is a 4 not a 5 star is that it sometimes gets very crowded, and also the lake can get disgustingly...
