Walk a little on the wild side in Sheffield’s parks and gardens. These are a few of our favourite spots, close to our hearts and full of character — we hope they inspire you to find your own hidden gems on your next adventure.
The Peak District, Stanage Edge
If you’re after dramatic views, wild landscapes, and a bit of adventure — Stanage Edge is where it’s at. Just a short drive from Sheffield and right next to Ladybower Reservoir, this stretch of gritstone cliff is a must-visit in the northern Peak District. It’s a favourite spot for rock climbers and hikers, with rugged moorland, thick bracken, and unreal views. Whether you’re scaling the rocks or stomping through the heather, Stanage Edge is one of those places that sticks with you. It’s the perfect spot to escape the city and get a bit of fresh air — we can’t get enough of it.
