Where to see Snowdrops in Cheshire

Cheshire’s green spaces are some of the best in the country. Winter is an extra special time to enjoy these gardens and parklands. It’s a perfect time for a crisp walk amongst some gorgeous seasonal plant life, especially Snowdrops (Galanthus). When these beautiful plants begin to flower it’s a sign that spring is on the way and Cheshire’s landscapes are transformed when they come around.

There are plenty of options if you’re looking for a place to see snowdrops across the county. Congleton’s Rode Hall are offering their much-loved Snowdrop walks throughout February – a perfect opportunity to experience these gorgeous little buds. Why not visit National Trust Dunham Massey and Quarry Bank and wander their extensive parklands on a day out while taking in the Snowdrops to boot. And Ness, an already beautiful botanic garden, is rejuvenated after the winter freeze by the presence of Snowdrops.

So, as part of your new year adventures, wrap up warm and get your walking boots on to get out and explore Cheshire’s Snowdrop hotspots!
