Visitors to Poulter Country Park can enjoy well surfaced limestone paths that meander through maturing plantations and wildflower meadows.
Skylarks and Sparrowhawk are often spotted here and if you are lucky you may see the Wellback Honey Buzzard.
There are two waymarked trails around the park. One takes you up to the viewpoint from where you can enjoy views across the surrounding countryside to Creswell, Langwith, Clowne and on a clear day over the Wellbeck estate to Lincoln Cathedral.
The second path takes you down to the nature reserve area with its small fields that are full of cowslips in the spring.
Adjacent to the main Whaley Road car park are two ponds that attract many species of dragonfly, including the Emperor dragonfly and Black-tailed Skimmer.
The park is easily accessible by train from the Robin Hood line and links to the Archaeological Way and the Meden Valley Walks.
