Best Nature and Parks (RV, National, Dog, etc) in Peak Forest Canal

"A Grade-II listed site, the beautiful 19-acre Sheffield Botanical Gardens were established in 1836 and showcase more than 5,000 species of plants. This is a lovely spot for a stroll, especially in the spring and summer, when many of the plants are in full bloom. Highlights include the glasshouses, also Grade II-listed, with temperate plants from Australia, Asia, and South Africa; the Victorian Garden; and the Four Seasons Garden, which is colorful at any time of year."

"Sheffield’s botanical gardens are based on Ecclesfield Road and were first opened in 1836. The gardens were designed by Robert Marnock, considered one of the great horticulturalists and garden designers of the nineteenth century. The botanical gardens consist of 19 acres of lawns, as well as the glass pavilions, which collectively host over 5,000 species of plants."

"Circling back now to the south of the city, the Botanical Gardens are not to be missed. Enjoy a peaceful amble through acres of gorgeous greenery and beautiful flowers, stop to feed the friendly squirrels and then enjoy a quiet moment to yourself on the lawn."

"Opened in honour of Queen Victoria and her 1887 Jubilee, the Endcliffe Park is a prominent example of Sheffield’s many green lungs. The park is a great place for children thanks to a large, newly refurbished playground, and for joggers and casual walkers thanks to both its park and woodland. The park interestingly also features a parkour training facility for those interested in more extreme running and jumping activities."

"Ever feel like kicking back with a nice, little book or just strolling through one of those storybook-esque English gardens?. Or maybe you just require a relaxing afternoon nap while the children frolic around minding their own business. In any case, Endcliffe Park might just be the right place to go to."

"Rising from the valley floor, the observation cars transport you in comfort and safety, allowing stunning views of the Derwent Valley and surrounding Peak District View Site"

"Named after Mr. Fletcher Moss (who donated the park’s grounds to the city), these Botanical Gardens are part plant showcase, part wildlife habitat, and part recreational facility. The plant life here is renowned for its beauty, and contains several unusual varieties. Some of the older specimens have grown there since the foundation of the park a full century ago."

"An exciting play centre where children can let off steam at the best indoor play centre in Derbyshire View Site"

"While the country house at Hare Hill Hall is privately owned, the garden is cared for by the National Trust. The star here is the walled garden, a blaze of colour in early-summer when the rhododendrons and azaleas burst into flower. There are also uncommon varieties of poppy, iris, lupin, phlox and echinacea."

"Another one that you'll have to exercise patience for is the RNCM (Royal Northern College of Music), which is - understandably - prioritising the return of students and tutors. You can see the latest updates at www.rncm.ac.uk."

"The Royal Northern College of Music is an internationally acclaimed conservatoire, as well as an eclectic performance venue delivering a diverse programme of music and opera performances."

"One of Sheffield's most famous theatres and well-known for hosting the World Snooker Championships, of course. The Crucible is an iconic building and a Sheffield-themed Insta would be lost without it."

"For those on the hunt for vintage finds, specialist children's toys and home decor, the centre on Brimington Road is a treasure trove filled with hidden gems."

"While idling in the Pavilion Gardens you could call in at this gallery in the main building next to the tourist information desk. The Gallery in the Gardens is a platform for painting and arts and crafts by more than 40 local artists and craftspeople. Their works are for sale and include textiles, ceramics, paintings, calligraphy, embroidery, glass, linocuts, etchings, woodcarvings and prints."

"Since you’ll find yourself within The Pavilion Gardens, you might want to pay The Gallery in the Gardens a visit. It’s an art gallery featuring paintings, ceramics, and other crafts by local artists. Support the local artists’ high-quality masterpieces by making a purchase or two if you can."
