Visiting Tynwald National Park
Paved paths wind through grass and trees, making access through the park
very easy. There is a viewing area offering access for the disabled, but
the view is not very good from that location due to thickening
of vegetation. A variety of ducks make their home in the small lake (pond)
and are always happy for a bit of bread. There are benches about the park
for the comfort of visitors and children will find the enclosed playground
well worth a visit.
