We start by walking up through Meersbrook Park, then pass through local woodland to get to Graves Park. We’ll do a loop around Graves Park and the adjoining Cobnar Wood. There’s potential for a snack/cake stop at the Rose Garden Café before we head down via Carr Wood and back into Meersbrook Park.
Please note the first third of this walk is mostly uphill, but, in accordance with the laws of physics, we shall go up but come back down again (with the opportunity to take in some magnificent views of Sheffield as we do so).
