Greno and Wharncliffe Woods Circular
To the north of Sheffield, near Grenoside, lie Greno and Wharncliffe Woods. These are some fabulous woodlands to walk through and this 7-mile circular takes it all in and more. The Route what3words for start point: ///dull.throw.slave Start / Finish Point: Grenoside Distance: 7 Miles GPX Route Map grenowoodDownload Walk Description These ancient woodlands and forested areas stretch for miles around and you can easily spend a whole day walking through them. Starting in the middle of Grenoside on Penistone Road, it is just a minute or two before you are suddenly inside the thick green woodland of Greno Woods. One minute you are in a housing area by a main road, then the next you are suddenly transported into calmness and nature. This first section of the loop walk takes you deeper into Greno Woods, not realising you are going gradually upwards. Then there is a gradual upwards path that brings you out at a trig point. This is the summit of Greno Knoll. This trig point is, of course, a remnant from a time before the high trees. Over time, the trees have obscured any line of sight to and from the trig point from elsewhere. From there, you drop down the other side and across Woodhead Road into a car park. This is where you enter Wharncliffe Wood. The pathways here are very wide and, as I found, a little more busy than Greno. Dog walkers, joggers and horse riders all enjoy the surroundings this place offers. Even though there were more people there, it did not feel overly busy at all. These woods cover a huge area, so there is plenty of space for one and all to enjoy. Of course, you don't even need to take the route we took. Paths lead in all directions from this place of real exploration. The locals are truly blessed. The path takes you all around and through the woods before you suddenly emerge into the open and onto Whalejaw Hill. You do not realise how high you have gone and there are spectacular views from here of Sheffield, the Peak District and beyond. The path from here winds round and back into Greno Woods for a gentle walk back to Grenoside. The dogs absolutely loved this walk too, with so much to stimulate them and space for them to run about safely. This is definitely one of those walks that may be 7 miles long but certainly does not feel that long or hard in any way. You can take all the time to enjoy it as you wish.
