Broken Scar weir is located adjacent to the park and can also be the start of a circular walk part of the Teesdale Way along the river and back along Blackwell, Carmel Road South and Coniscliffe Road to the car park which is approx 3.1 miles.
As short walk from this location is the Baydale Beck pub and the Tees Cottage Pumping Station https://www.teescottage.co.uk/. The first part of the path has large mature trees then open spaces with good access to the river for picnics.
