Milton Country Park is managed by Cambridge Sport Lakes Trust, who took over the management of the Park from South Cambridgeshire District Council in April 2008. Created from old gravel pits the 95 acre site offers a varied natural habitat interlaced with over two miles of paths, suitable for bicycles and wheelchairs, as well as those on foot. The Park includes a Visitor Centre with cafe, two play-areas, viewing platforms, and sensory garden. The Park is open to the public 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The car park, the Visitor Centre, and toilet block are open from 8am each day, every day of the year except Christmas Day. Closing times vary according to the season. Fishing is available on both the main lakes from a number of easily accessible platforms, an annual permit or a day ticket is required from the Cambridge Fish Preservation and Angling Society. The Park has an events program throughout the year, and the Visitor centre can be hired for up to 50 people (seated), for meetings and social events such as children's parties and weddings.
