Meanwood Park is a beautiful and peaceful oasis in the heart of Leeds. The park has well-maintained walking paths, plenty of open green spaces, and scenic views. It's a great place to go for a walk, have a picnic, or just relax and enjoy the fresh air. There are also several facilities available, such as playgrounds, basketball courts, tennis courts, a plenty of kids playing area and a nice old bridge to walk over. I highly recommend Meanwood Park to anyone looking for a peaceful escape in the city.

Such a wonderful park. It has many different paths that can be taken and is just a beautiful park. I feel very lucky to live next to it.

One of my fave place to be!! Perfect for all the family. Cafe is absolutely lovely, especially the cakes and hot chocolate. Options for everyone available. Very muddy at certain times if year.

I don't even know where to start with this place. During the lockdown, it's one of those places that has been keeping me safe. The park is clean, and well looked after. I love the old bridge. The cafe is only getting better, but has been too busy even during lockdowns.

Lovely park with a beautiful river running through it with a small falls. Great for family and free parking

Fantastic part of Leeds and must be visited by everyone who is in the area. So much appreciated by past generations and will certainly be treasured by future generations. love Meanwood park in all seasons, it's perfect for family days out, dog walking, picnics, jogging, bike rides or just somewhere to relax. A huge variation of different areas are hidden into this park, with rivers and streams and a deeper wooded area called the Hollies accessible from here (which has tennis courts free to play). Mystical wooded areas to chill out in.

Amazing walk round, small play park, cafe extremely busy and coffee was luke warm, lovely walk through woods, over bridges, lots of streams, people moving aside to pass. Wasn't as long as I thought but still lovely to explore!

Such a beautiful place to visit whatever the weather...well done to Leeds council..the whole city is a credit to the investment they have returned making it a fantastic place to be..the park is a real gem ...well done Leeds...I love your city.x

What a beautiful place full of mystery and wonder. No shortage of interesting things to discover. Take your wellies, it's muddy!

Great

There's big open, alit of woodland paths. It was boggy but that's expected at this of year. I went with my dog. Lots of other friendly dogs running around. The cafe is really nice. A bit on the expensive side but the quality was brilliant. The sausage rolls are absolutely massive.

What a beautiful park that makes you feel like you're far away from the city. They have a nice cafe open 7 days a week, serving drinks, snacks, lunches and pastry. It's pet friendly as well so you can bring your doggos for a walk. Even saw a couple of horses! The meanwood valley trail passes through so a great stop while on your walk or even the start of the trail. Can't wait to go back again soon.

Lovely park, very peaceful. Has basketball court and tennis court and play area for the kids.

A lovely park with an excellent play area for children of all ages - variety of play equipment (climbing net, roundabouts, swings, slides, rock climbing, doughnut swing, monkey bars) plus the stream adds an extra interesting walk. With plenty of bridges in between with lovely small waterfalls.

A lovely open space. Plenty of open areas for children to play and a well maintained playground. The wooded area is a delight - lots of paths to explore. If you want a climbing challenge, then there are some good steep slopes to scramble up. The coffee shop near the car park on the south side is excellent.

Nice park, good for dog walking

Busy but still space to social distance if you avoid the toddler families and parents who allow children to hog the paths with their bikes. Head into the woods or hollies for a decent walk without stress! Cafe and ice cream van do take out coffee also.

Plenty of open spaces, play areas for children, a stream with numerous bridges (great for playing poohsticks with the grandchildren!) and more peaceful areas for quiet contemplation!

Impressed with park facilities for the children and cleanliness. We walked through the woods to get to the park and were pleased with cleanliness and lack of litter in there. It is lovely to see it being used by lots of people and that they appreciate the area and leave it as they found it for others.

A lovely place to visit both The Park and The Hollies. A large estate of woodlands to explore, with a pretty little stream through its centre. Basketball courts, tennis courts, open grass areas and long walks all available for free. Lots of parking available nearby. Well worth a visit.

Born and raised in Meanwood so I'm not going to be bias but the park is very underrated, I truly think people do not realise what a monumental place the park is and how adventurous A+

Nice early on before the crowds, 3 cottages cafe nice for a take away before you head home

Beautiful scenic route, a lovely surprise so close to the city.

Always nice to have a walk on the Meanwood valley trail. A forest in the middle of Leeds. 🙂

Food is too expensive in cafe

Nice are of open space surrounded by woodland.

possibly the only basketball hoops with nets, simply unheard of simply wonderful

Got to be the best Park going...

Lots of trails to explore & doesn't feel like you're in the city

Great place for a walk especialy if your a dog lover. Also a handy dog friendly cafe nearby

Great park kids playground cafe lovely stream running through This is the start of Meanwood Valley Trail Its possible to walk toAlwoodley a.d Adel a round trip walk of apx 6mls There is also the Holly's lovely walk when the Rhododendrons are out apx May

Beautiful park with some lovely woodland walks. You can get to Golden Acre Park and the Seven Arches via the Meanwood Valley Trail 💜💛

Great for a god walk and for the kids.

Beautiful

Lovely open spaces. Lots of nature

Love this place. So many parts of it to explore and great for dog walking.

Nice for a stroll if you avoid the mud

if Carlsberg was to design a park,,,,,

Great park for a walk with many woodland trails leading off from it.

Best Park for walks

An absolutely privilege to live just next to it. So beautiful park all year around!!! Endless paths and great for dog-walking.

Absolutely fabulous park. So many nooks and crannies to explore

I've been going to meanwood park for RT years and always loved it. There are some great woodland walks up into the rhododendron slopes, and some hidden gardens at the top, plus in the main park café and lots of swings, play park. Great for dog walking. Lots of local history!

Great for walks and the cafe is nice too. Serving takeaway

Busy but muddy

Nice grass. Nice woodland. Found a dead body. Nice cafe, friendly people.

Would be a lovely place in Summer and can see why it would be popular but at this time of years it's really muddy and boggy and not as accessible.

Nice Park, but in desperate need of investment.

Great place but needs investment for children's playground

A very large and very beautiful garden and amusement park with a corner for children in an excellent and wonderful location that everyone who wants to take a walk, sports and accompanying children can accept on it, and there is also a cart to sell very delicious ice cream

Parking difficult

Lovely park with a small playground and lots of space for kids to run. Stream with poohstick bridges and a weir.

got stabbed but a good place to die

Just walking through early on, sat on bench by stone bridge near Hustlers Row listening to water from Meanwood Beck rush over the weir ...

It has good features and nice place for walking and geting fresh air thank uk Gb

Really lovely open space with, playground, park, toilets and becks 🥰 xxx

A fantastic dog walking park with open field and nature trails water features, car parking and cafe too.

Plenty of green space for games and relaxing. Good walks throughout the park including a section of the Meanwood Valley Trail.

I go here for a run and to keep my dog happy daily. It's great for everyone: families with kids, dogs, joggers or people who just want to take a nice walk. I personally love it. The dogs can drink water from the creek or cool down. It's super easily accessible and you can also extend your walk to The Hollies. It has a rocky patch that is wonderful for exercise.

An excellent escape to the wilderness

Brilliant park for all the family

Delightful and unspoilt piece of heaven just north of Leeds city centre. I've been visiting this park since I was a child back in the late 1950s, it has changed very little in that time. Great for walking the dog or just a pleasant stroll along the stream. Very tranquil and natural looking. You really feel miles away from it all here. R Gill

I love this place - when you consider that it's contiguous with The Hollies and Adel Woods it's by far my favourite park in Leeds

An amazing place.

Lovely park with a beck running through it.

Love this park so much.

Urban natural Paradise and gorgeous cafe. Vegan friendly and welcomes dogs, great staff and food.

Perfect place for a run/jog/walk, to catch some fresh air or even spend time with pets/friends/family/special ones. Definitely a happy place to be!

Good for all the family, woods, streams, play area, cafe, doggy friendly. Could do with more park benches but apart from that a brilliant park

Lovely place, perfect for walk in sunny day

A bit wild but great to relax in the middle of nature.

Amazing local park great for dogs, children a d adults

Just love this place - fantastic.

Love this place. Great walks looking for trout

Great woodland and riverside walk. Small playground for little ones and even an eatery on site.

Great for walks.

My favourite of the north Leeds parks. Good and popular kids playground which turns into a mudbath if it's been raining

A pleasant green space, but gets rather busy with young families during holidays.

A treasure.

Bad

Dont remember going

Great park

An amazing park. People in Meanwood are very lucky to have this place.

Brilliant for me i spent my childhood in this park .So coming back and walking round is really nice cafe plenty of parking

Great for a nice walk and looking at nature with the kids. Lovely play park also

My home town x

Nice and easy for wheelchair access and nice cafe

Fantastic for walking dogs. Beautiful walks and water.

Wonderful park..very dog friendly. Lots of variety in a relatively small area. The best park in leeds.

Probably the most dog friendly park in Leeds, with woodland forest and a dog friendly pub off Meanwood Road, and down the hill a lovely stream and large green fields for dogs to run free.

Nice walk along the beck. Not a massive park but a clean wildlife conservation area. Love it.

Beautiful Park with great trail that you can do with children. Nice waterfalls. Had a wonderful afternoon.

Nice walks and lovely quite space to get away from the city. Bet it's beautifull in the summer. Visited on the 9th of January 2022. Only downfall Is that the public toilets were closed and this really needs addressing as some people have health issues were they need public toilets (Is it legal to sell drinks at a near by cafe and not provide toilet facilties).

Very dog friendly. Has a great little cafe with some vegan and gluten free options.

Great park! Perfect for families or anyone looking for a nice walk. Has everything you need; picnic benches and a cafe, playground, grassy area, wooded hilly walk, stream with some ducks and if you go further it connects to the Hollies for a nice walk along the water. I love getting an ice cream or drink here and just sitting watching the stream. Been told by my friend its great fir dogs as well, with the grass area good for running and ball throwing and water for paddles!

I love to walk in this park with my grandsons who live in the area. Watching it change through the seasons gives me a lot of pleasure. I love seeing the beck shift from higher to lower water levels, sometimes calm, sometimes rushing by. This is a beautiful place to enjoy the woods or the ducks, watch the trees bloom in the spring, and occasionally have a delicious little snack from the cafe.

Great little park , with nice forest paths

A good sized park and not too busy, my only problem is that a large section of grass has been left to overgrow. This is one of the flatter parts and is usually great for Acro.

Nice park, the streams were full due to the amount of rain we had had. A nice old bridge to walk over. Nice to be out in the country but close to the city too. A good cafe with lovely hot chocolate and really yummy cakes and a free toilet. Children's playground also included a children's climbing wall. Lots of people with dogs on leads. Lots of areas to have a picnic when the weather is good.

Great park for a walk!🚶

Very nice walk around to explore nature. Out of the way which is nice and not many people go so it's a good place to get away for a while. Lovely

The best park in Leeds! Plenty of trails, a stream and a lovely cafe. The perfect place for a walk.

A lovely little local park in Meanwood. Great for walking dogs or just going on a simple walk. So much to explore.

Its a very nice place to visit. Its got a lovely route to go on and lots of wildife around you. There's a lovely little cafe at which you can get drinks, lunch, cakes and ice cream. They have toilets and seating inside and outside. Its a very nice place to visit.

Always worth a visit. If not only for coffee and cakes at Three Cottages Cafe, which is going from strength to strength, but for the woodland walks along Meanwood Valley trail or up into The Hollies. Many little loop walks or plenty of benches to sit and take it all in with an ice-cream. There is limited car parking at the end of Green Road opposite the school or you can park at The Hollies, The Myrtle Tavern or even in Meanwood centre and easily walk to the park. Plenty of open space for ball games and there is a children's play area, basketball court, bowling green and public toilets.

A lovely place to enjoy nature... a small wood to walk in and green spaces + a childrens playground 😊

I really like this park as its very dog friendly . And even if u don't have a dog it's a lovely place to walk and there are plenty different walks u can do. The cafe is very nice and is also dog friendly. The complaint I have there is not enough fog bins or seats to sit down on

Lovely park for dog walking. Stream and paths through wooded areas. Children's play area looked good as well. Visited the café for drinks. Lots of people having food as well.
