  • Outdoors
  • Free

Wander the overgrown paths of a Victorian garden cemetery on a hillside, past grand gateways, chapels and the graves of the city's steel barons.

Why it's a good date: Quiet, green and full of stories, and lovely in autumn when the leaves turn. Pick up a trail from the trust's website first, then head to Sharrow Vale or Ecclesall Road for a coffee.
