About
Two areas of ancient hilly woodland make up most of this delightful country park. Renowned for glorious displays of bluebells in the Springtime, the park can take your breath away all year round with its hillside location offering spectacular panoramic views over four counties on a clear day. The site also has a great adventure play area/tea kiosk.

An oasis of a resource or location for walking or to cycle. It offers walks for leisure or the more strenuous routes. Offers great cross country running too. Parking charges are a bargain

We love doing on visits around the hayes. There are some many different views to take in and every season it is still engaging. The children's playground keeps both of my children entertained for a long time.

Lovely kids park and good for a vigorous dog walk. Warning - don't take prams to the woods as we got very stuck on a huge muddy hill. Otherwise, lovely views!

Hi there Thanks for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. We've got a range of path-types at Hartshill Hayes, and the hilly, wooded-nature of this park means that not all of the paths are suitable for prams, pushchairs and wheelchairs, but we hope that there are still plenty of well-surfaced paths that are suitable options. Best regards, Alex

Large car park. £3 to park to be paid by card.
Three different routes to choose from although half way around the signs seem to disappear so it is guess work to get your self back to the car park.
Very steep hills in places so good if you want a sweaty, work out. I would not visit this place if your looking for a relaxing summers walk.
Nice playground area for the children which is by the car park and plenty of benches around the area.

The bluebells were wonderful and it was lovely to walk through the woods to see the blue haze. However, it would be nice to be able to get drink.. There appears to be no catering outlet

It's always great to be at one with nature here. In the winter it's especially atmospheric with the shapes of the leafless trees, the contrasting greens of the evergreens and the softness of the masses of leaves underfoot that will become the nutrients for the trees in the summer. We were very pleased on this visit to find that the signage had been improved and the route of the Blue Walk was much easier to follow.
