You can walk to the Village and Caversham Wildlife Park from the Drumpellier Drive entrance, via a two (2) kilometre signposted pathway. The Walk/Cycle Map shows the location of the path in relation to the road and Drumpellier Drive entrance.

We do not recommend walking on the road, as there is no adjacent path, hence posing a danger to pedestrians. If walking, please use the separate, marked pathway through the open fields for your safety. Shelters are located along the length of the path, should you encounter some inclement weather.
