Adventure golf course opening in Beacon Park this May half term

A new nine-hole adventure golf course is opening in Beacon Park this Saturday (23 May) - offering families, friends and visitors a fun activity to enjoy in one of Lichfield’s most popular green spaces.

Beacon Park Adventure Golf has been designed with a woodland-inspired look and feel, making it more in keeping with the historic park setting while still offering a playful and enjoyable experience for all ages.

The new course includes nine challenging holes with woodland-themed features and accessible roped pathways designed to make it easier for more people to enjoy the activity.

Navigate the obstacles and slopes as you putt your way around, avoid the pitfalls and try to score that elusive hole in one!

Adventure Golf is just one of the improvements Lichfield District Council is making to Beacon Park’s facilities. Padel tennis courts and an improved Pitch and Putt golf course are both set to open over the coming summer.

Councillor Andy Smith, Lichfield District Council’s deputy leader and cabinet member for Leisure and Major Projects, said: “Beacon Park is one of Lichfield’s best-loved spaces and we want it to continue to be a place where families, residents and visitors can spend quality time together.

“The new adventure golf course is a fantastic addition to the park. It is fun, affordable and designed to sit well within the park’s setting. We hope it gives families another reason to visit Beacon Park and enjoy everything it has to offer during half term and beyond.”

Beacon Park Adventure Golf opens on Saturday at 10.30am. The attraction will be open seven days a week, with opening hours linked to the park kiosk. Visitors can pay on arrival and collect clubs and balls from the kiosk.

Prices start from £1.50 per child and £3 per adult.
