Best Nature and Parks (RV, National, Dog, etc) in Heald Green

"Founded in 1917, this large green space - part botanical garden and part wildlife habitat - is an engaging contrast to the busy city center. There are numerous walking trails on the property, as well as regular guided "health" walks. Popular things to do here include enjoying a stroll or picnic, or opting for more strenuous activities, such as tennis, rugby, or football."

"Fletcher Moss Park is a wide network of paths around the area around the Gardens, through Stenner Woods, round Millgate Fields, and along the river Mersey. Much of the area is a Local Nature reserve and there is a variety of wildlife to see and vistas to enjoy. At first, finding your way around can be a little confusing, and a map of the area might help."

"Fletcher Moss Park is located in Didsbury and is a great place to go if you really appreciate nature. The pathways take you through some lovely scenery, making it an ideal place to take a long, relaxing walk. There’s also a café on-site for when you’re feeling a bit peckish, and you could get a little picnic going with your household/bubble."

"This limestone cave within walking distance of the centre of Buxton is two million years old, and was inhabited by people in the Bronze Age and Roman Period. The cave has been on the tourist map for nearly 350 years, and before that is believed to have been visited by Mary Queen of Scots. Led by an expert guide you’ll trail through 300 metres of chambers, admiring weird concretions like the Mary Queen of Scots Pillar and the Poached Egg Stalagmites, which have yolk-like pigment on their tips."

"Peak District National Park does not really deserve its name. There are no towering peaks here, only open swamps, beautiful river valleys and gentle hills. The highest place is only 636 meters above sea level. A large number of limestone faults have created a unique landform for the peak area, making it the best choice for tourists to hike, hike, cave and climb, and is therefore known as the paradise of British outdoor sports."

"Location: Intu Trafford Centre, Barton Square Bridge, Stretford, Manchester M17 8AS. Sea Life Manchester is one of the country’s top-rated aquariums and is home to thousands of fish as well as sharks, stingrays, and spider crabs. Meanwhile, two giant green sea turtles (Cammy and Ernie) are a major attraction too."

"Then, Sea Life Manchester Aquarium is an amazing place to visit to get into marine life. You get to see many beautiful species from starfish to seahorses to sharks and many more. Come and witness these beautiful creatures in the crystal clear waters!"

"Down the River Bollin, Riverside Park is north of the town centre and merges with West Park. Despite being surrounded by the town, Riverside Park feels remote and has two big parcels of woodland, along with a community orchard, butterfly meadow and wildflower meadow. This last area is grazed by docile longhorn cattle to help stop invasive grass species."

"The caves around Castleton are open for tours and are something that families will undoubtedly enjoy. There are several caves of note. The caves are famous for having large deposits of Blue John – a large semi-precious stone!"

"The area's most exciting cavern by far is Speedwell Cavern, with 105 slippery steps leading down to old lead-mine tunnels blasted out…"

"There’s an early taste of the Peak District right on Macclesfield’s eastern flank at this park on the slopes of the dominant Tegg’s Nose hill. As soon as you arrive at the car park, there’s a handy visitor centre with leaflets and information boards about the hill’s human history and wildlife. For hundreds of years the Tegg’s Nose was quarried for millstone grit, and an old quarry site has been preserved and labelled with signs."

This restaurant is a perfect combination of great tasting, high-quality traditional dining with affordable prices."

"09/05/2021: Being vegan is always hard to order takeaway without it being bland!. This was full of flavour!. The best curry I have had in a long time and my partner who had a lamb dish, he’s normally never impressed with Indian takeaways but he listened to me and tried it and loved it and said wow !"
