Located on the Snake Pass (A57) between Sheffield and Manchester, Snake woodland is hidden from view until you venture down the path towards the river. I’ve driven along the A57 many times and never spotted this hidden gem until recently.
It’s beautiful walking along the river Ashop between all the pine trees at just over a mile long this place is about taking your time and enjoying the scenery. A perfect place to bring a picnic with plenty of areas to sit sheltered from the wind.
Getting there
