Got to love the Prom.
I have been coming to Otterspool for 60+ years - with my parents and grandparents as a kid.
I still come down here on special days to remember them.
It is a vibrant place with lot's of room.
We only lived a few miles away but I remember my Dad saying "If you had driven a couple of hours and found a place like this you'd be made up"

Otterspool Promenade is one of the best spots in Liverpool for a relaxing walk, stunning river views, and a bit of fresh air away from the city. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful escape, a place to exercise, or a family-friendly location, this promenade has something for everyone.
The scenery is absolutely beautiful. The promenade runs along the River Mersey, offering breathtaking views of the water and the city skyline in the distance. Whether it’s a sunny day with clear blue skies or a breezy evening as the sun sets, the atmosphere is always peaceful and inviting. The area is well-maintained, with clean paths and plenty of space to walk, cycle, or jog.
For families, Otterspool is a great choice. The adventure playground is a fantastic spot for kids to enjoy, with plenty of equipment to keep them entertained. There’s also a large open space for picnics, flying kites, or just relaxing with friends and family. The grass areas are perfect for sitting down and enjoying the view, especially on a warm day.
One of the highlights is the Otterspool Café, which serves delicious coffee, snacks, and ice cream—great for a quick break while enjoying the walk. There are also benches along the route for anyone who wants to sit and take in the view.
Parking is usually not an issue, as there is a car park nearby, but it can get busy on weekends. My only suggestion would be to add a few more public toilets, as they are quite limited.
Overall, Otterspool Promenade is a must-visit if you're in Liverpool. It’s a peaceful, scenic, and enjoyable spot for all ages, and I always leave feeling refreshed. Highly recommend!
