Explore a Green Flag-awarded landscaped park with play areas, walking trails, a lake, and the therapeutic Armed Forces Community Garden.

Hillfield Park is a wonderful large landscaped area serving the local community and awarded Green Flag status for its excellence. The park features extensive play facilities designed for children of all ages and abilities, including slides and swings, alongside a scenic lake and network of walking trails ideal for family exploration. A key highlight is the Armed Forces Community Garden, an eco-therapy project divided into three distinct zones: a community wildlife garden, a summer meadow with community orchard, and a newly planted woodland area. This peaceful sanctuary provides opportunities for reflection, nature-based activities, and community connection, developed to benefit veterans, their families, local schools, and all visitors. The park offers excellent amenities including free car parking, a bookable football pitch, and full accessibility via nearby bus routes and train stations. Open 24 hours for pedestrians with daytime car park access, Hillfield Park is an ideal destination for families seeking outdoor recreation, nature exploration, and peaceful green spaces. Walking groups and activities are available through Solihull On The Move for those wanting guided experiences.

Beautiful park, very serene and calm. It has a nice water area with ducks and a park for children. Great place for family picnics or exercise.

Absolutely love this place. Walk my dog daily here. It's very very clean and tidy. Very picturesque and and a safe place to let my dog off the lead as not near any roads.

If your looking for a picnic area and a nice break from the city this is perfect. It does get busy though so if you can park once you may not be able to the next time. It's down the road from Solihull main town centre and it's a nice spot for some games. There's a small play area and a zip line for the kids and a lovely little pond.

A lovely expanse of green space, with nice playground & zip-line, and a pond with lots of ducks and geese. Good size car park as well, and great for kids :) Early morning right the way to evening filled with friendly dog walkers, joggers and families - lively but never too busy, would recommend

A beautiful park in the borough of Solihull with an abundance of water fowl and plenty of space for picnicking and sports and relaxation.
