🌞 Discover the Solar System… Right Here in Nonsuch Park!

If you’re looking for something a little different to do locally - especially with curious kids (or curious adults!) - there’s an exciting new attraction to explore in Nonsuch Park.

The Solar System Walk has recently been installed, offering a unique, interactive and educational experience that brings space a little closer to home.

🚀 A Walk Through Space

Starting near the mansion and coffee shop in Nonsuch Park, this cleverly designed walk takes you on a journey through our solar system - all scaled down into a walkable trail.

As you move along the route, you’ll encounter different planets positioned at distances that reflect their real spacing in space. It’s a fantastic way to visualise just how vast our solar system really is - something that’s hard to grasp otherwise!

🌍 Fun, Educational & Perfect for All Ages

Created by Ewell Astronomical Society, the Solar System Walk is designed to be both fun and educational.

It’s ideal for:

• Families with children who love space 🚀
• School-age kids learning about planets and science 📚
• Anyone with a curiosity about the universe 🌌
• Walkers looking for something a bit different to explore locally 🚶‍♀️

Each stop along the way provides interesting facts and insights, making it a great opportunity to learn something new while enjoying the outdoors.

🌿 A Brilliant Use of Local Green Space

We’re so lucky to have beautiful open spaces like Nonsuch Park on our doorstep - and initiatives like this make them even more valuable.

It’s a perfect example of how our local parks can be used not just for relaxation, but also for learning, discovery and inspiration.

☕ Make a Day of It

Why not combine your Solar System adventure with:

• A coffee or lunch at the nearby café
• A longer walk around the park
• A family day out in the fresh spring air

It’s a simple, free activity that offers something a little bit special.
