Knowsley Safari Park was opened to the public in July 1971 by the 18th Earl of Derby. Then, the `safari park' concept of having visitors in cages (cars) and the animals roaming free based on the drive-through game reserves of East Africa was unique. In 1994, Edward Stanley, the 19th Earl, succeeded to the title. The estate being only 8 miles (13 km) from Liverpool city centre, Knowsley was the first safari park to be built close to a large city. In spite of some understandable apprehension about the possible problems associated with large numbers of animals (including lions) roaming about close to the city, the then County and District councils approved the proposals.In the first two years of opening, the route through Knowsley Safari Park consisted of a 3½ mile (5.6 km) drive, and the main attractions were lions, cheetahs, monkeys, giraffes, zebra, elephants and various antelopes. The park proved immensely popular, so in 1973 an extension, including a further 1½ miles (2.4km) of road, was built and opened. This allowed more animals to be added to the collection on display along the now 5-mile- (8 km) long route, including herds of camels, buffalo and white rhino as well as a group of tigers.A few modifications to the original design have had to be made for safety and display reasons. The tigers and lions are now displayed in enclosures within the game reserves, and the elephants have their own paddock in the walk around section at the end of the safari drive. We also have a car friendly route around the outside of the monkey jungle for visitors who do not wish to have a close encounter with our baboons. Knowsley Safari Park has become one of Merseyside's premier leisure attractions, winning several awards for tourism and it's animal husbandry.
We visited at the bank holiday weekend, and found there is something for everyone. It is not difficult to fill the whole day with activities. It is worth arriving early to drive the safari route before it gets too busy. There are plenty of animals to see, but some are more active at different times of the day. We found that a second trip around in the afternoon allows some animals to be seen in better proximity (for instance a large male lion was on the road right next to the car on our second circuit). The baboons provided much entertainment for the children when scampering over the car, but beware they can remove aerials or wipers from the car! After a drive around there is the walking safari, where you can see giraffe, tigers, hogs, meerkats, bats and sea lions. For the children there is also a play area and a number of rides for which you can buy individual tickets, or a wristband for better value. Plenty of options exist for eating and drinking (at reasonable prices), and there is a picnic area that can be used if you want to bring your own food. Overall we found the animals appeared well looked after, everywhere was clean and well maintained. In my opinion it is a better day out and better value than the Blue Planet Aquarium or Chester Zoo that are both nearby.

The Stadt Moers Park (There are 4 parts to this park but all separated) I Walk my dog around one of the Parks. They are all well maintained and we are lucky to have them near to us. The part that has the Ranger Station on it, has a few tracks you can wander around or you can stick to the main tarmac path. As you came down the path you can see the (I don't know if you would call it a pond or a lake) There are ducks on the pond and a seat near by so you can enjoy the view. There are a few bins around for you to put rubbish in. The Walk around any of the Stadt Moers Parks will keep you healthy.
