Walks locally:
A beautiful walk from Halifax Hall is along Riverdale Rd, through Bingham Park, up to Forge Dam where there is a lovely cafe. (1hr walk from Halifax Hall to Forge Dam Café)
This is a real favourite with all of us.
Endcliffe Park is lovely for a stroll. The cafe serves good coffee, ice-cream & decent food. Lots of birdlife in & around the ponds.
Sheffield Botanical Gardens is a beautiful dog-friendly garden (6 minutes walk) with a great café.
If you’ve got transport a lovely walk is around Redmires Reservoir – only a 15 minute drive from Halifax Hall. There is lots of parking around the reservoir and you can walk out to Stanage Pole.
