Small park on a hillside, with an interesting history outlined on the information boards near the entrances. The elevated position provides some good views over the city, and the large trees mean there's plenty of shade on a hot sunny day. The tower built into the wall is an unusual feature. Benches are located around the park, though some of the paths are steep so won't suit everybody. No café or toilet facilities in the park, but there is a small play area.

Lovely Park nicely maintained with great views and a peaceful, calm atmosphere. Slightly away from the main areas, so does not get as busy as some of the parks.

You get some spectacular views from the inclines in this park! Obviously, that also means it can be a bit of a steep walk to get up to, if something like that bothers you. It has a playground and lots of space to just relax. Recommended

Hedgemead Park is a small and quiet park overlooking the city of Bath. A lovely spot to bring a book and sit yourself down. There are stairs going from the top to the bottom, bringing you from Alpine Gardens directly into the hustle and bustle of Bath. Lovely!

A nice park to walk around with some amazing views and interesting things to see. There is a bandstand, play park, lots of places to sit and what looks like a look out tower from below. The kids play park has a good range of things to play on to keep them entertained for a while. There is a drinking water fountain (not in use) but still interesting to see. All the trees are labeled so you can see what type of tree it is that your looking at. This park is on a steep hill wich in some places the paths can be steep to although not to bad as they zigzag all the way up but for someone not as mobile as others may fined it a bit difficult. There is no toilets.
