OS GREENSPACE
A MORE ACTIVE, GREENER, HEALTHIER NATION

Finding greenspaces has never been easier!

The free Greenspace layer in OS Maps is the easiest way to discover greenspaces across Britain. And it just got even better as we've added Country Parks, Nature Reserves and Access Land!

Discover the great outdoors! Whether it’s a quick click online or a simple tap on the app, OS Maps lets you find different places for leisure and recreation across England, Scotland and Wales.

Stroll across a public park, run around a playing field, exercise at a sports facility, have fun in a play area, find the perfect picnic spot or reap the rewards of renting an allotment. Greenspace is Britain’s most comprehensive catalogue of accessible places.

Please check public access to all greenspaces before you travel.
