During September, families are welcome to come along and try out a new climbing wall at California Country Park in Finchampstead. The wall is suitable for parents, as well as children and toddlers.

Fun-packed, supervised sessions for 20 minutes are on offer for families to test out new skills and have fun. Adults and children can go climbing at weekends between 11am and 6pm on September 10, 11, 17 and 18. Toddler sessions take place on Friday September 9 and 16 between 12pm and 3pm. Prices start at £5.

"The climbing wall has been a great success at the Multi-Activity Centre at Dinton Pastures Country Park this summer and we wanted to bring it to Finchampstead so that residents here could have some fun with it too," said Tanya Budd of Wokingham Borough Council’s countryside service.

California Country Park also has a popular paddling pool which is open until Sunday September 11. There is also a lovely woodland play area and California Dreaming café, open daily for lunches, teas and ice-creams.
