Rivelin Valley Walk

This is a walk of over an hour through the beautiful Rivelin Valley which is made up of trees, rivers and wildlife.  The walk can be extended if you wish to explore the surroundings.  There is also the Rivelin Park Café for those wishing to stop for a break or refreshments.  The valley is full of wildlife and there are many uncommon birds that breed here.  It is also one of the last remaining places in this region where the Red Squirrel can still be found.
