Vale Park is Aylesbury’s main central park with a contemporary feel, beautiful trees and striking flower beds.

There is lots of seating throughout the park and it's ideal for informal games and picnics.

Aqua Vale Swimming & Fitness Centre is inside Vale Park, which includes:

• swimming pools
• a gym
• 3G 5-a-side football pitches (available for hire)

To book the football pitches, contact Aqua Vale.

The park also has:

• a modern, fenced play space (for ages 2 to 14)
• tarmac-surfaced multi-use games area (for football and basketball)
• modern outdoor calisthenics fitness area with a suspension trainer, steps and ‘turbo challenge’ obstacle course
• a skate park
• 2 tarmac-surfaced tennis courts (available for hire)
• public toilets with disabled facilities

Inclusive play items include:

• ball courts
• a large seat rocker
• a disc roundabout
• a tyre swing
• a wide access slide

It's also a Green Flag Award-winning park (the quality benchmark which recognises well managed parks and green spaces).

We have started charging a small amount for use of the tennis courts to help us keep them in excellent condition and ensure they remain safe and accessible for everyone.

The cost is £6 per court (per hour).

To book a tennis court you can either:

• scan the QR code on the gate sign which will take you directly to the park booking page on the LTA website
• visit the LTA website and search for the park by name, town or postcode

There is good pedestrian access from the town centre, with hard-surfaced paths to all of the facilities.

There is a pay-and-display car park at Aqua Vale with designated disabled bays.

There is also limited roadside parking available.

Occasionally sites may be subject to misuse or acts of vandalism, including:

• broken glass being left on the ground
• damaged play equipment
• graffiti
