The Friends of Craigtoun Country Park was formed in 2012 with the aim of securing the future of the park as an amenity for the people of St Andrews, Fife and visitors to the area. Following lengthy discussions with Fife Council it was agreed that the Friends should take over the running of all facilities in the park and in a partnership arrangement the Council would maintain the grounds and assist with grants/investment. Cut to 2015 and the story gets even better. With the help of Council grants and external grants/donations further investment is planned for the new season including the complete re-furbishment of the Rio Grande miniature railway and the installation of a new free to use ‘Trim Trail with zip wires’.

Craigtoun Park has plenty of attractions for visitors of all ages!

Tickets can be purchased from the ticket office for the following amenities which open for the season each year:

Rio Grande Railway
Puffin’ Billy Tractor Rides
The Boating Lake
Crazy Golf

Bouncy Castles
Pedal Cars (Under 7s only)

The following can be enjoyed for free, all year round:
