ROUTE:A walk promoted by Sheffield Council which circles through the parks and green areas of south west Sheffield. All of the walk is on well-made paths though some might be muddy if the weather has been wet. The walk goes up through Endcliffe Park following Porter Brook as far as Ringinglow. We then head down the Limb Valley and through Whirlowbrook Hall where we may stop for coffee. The route takes us through Eccleshall and Ladyspring woods, circling through golf courses to visit Graves Park and Meersbrook Park before returning to Nether Edge. Notwithstanding the distance, it is a pretty easy walk. A delightful way to enjoy the natural environment within the city boundaries. At the end of the walk we are likely to patronize the Byron pub and / or Café 9, both at the bottom of Nether Edge Road.
[Drivers may want to take account of this when selecting their
parking spot].
