ハーツホルムパークでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

great for some sheltered winter woodland and trail riding as the place is empty in the week in the duller colder months. summer is a no go on the bike as it gets very busy with lots of young ones around

The park can be busy, if it is use the playing field car park on the opposite side of Skellingthorpe Road

lovely little walk, keep your dogs and leads and enjoy inner city tranquility

The site comprises Victorian landscaped gardens, a large reservoir, woodlands and grasslands. Many features, both natural and built, survive from the original landscaping of the 1860s.

Swanholme Lakes Local Nature Reserve was formed from a series of flooded sand and gravel pits. After quarrying finished in the 1960s vegetation was able to colonise and this has resulted in a mosaic of different habitat types in an area covering 63 hectares.

Choose off peak times and the walkers dissappear

Please be careful if you have animals and or children . This part of the walk ruined the route for me as it takes you out of Hartsholme country park onto a busy main road until you reach the train 🚆 line crossing. At which point it cuts back in again 😃.
