Sheffield Station to Parkhill - Steps to climb

Recommended Posts

It depends if you count the platforms between runs of steps as steps themselves.

 

At the top there are 5 runs of 11, then 2 lots of 6 then 2 more 11s. 87 by my reckoning

Not really.

 

One is twice the other.

 

You're confusing the number of steps there are, with the number of steps taken.

Twice this weekend I've climbed the steps from the tram stop at Sheffield Station to Parkhill Flats (South Street) can anyone tell me how many steps there are please?

 

Count them yourself next time?

There is a route from the station to the Park Hill Flats with no steps.

 

Take the lift at the Supertram end of the Station Bridge to Supertram level.

 

Exit the vestibule toward the tram tracks.

 

Turn left and follow the tram tracks about 150 or so yards back towards the city centre.

 

At the small iron bridge (Gilbert Street) follow the road up the small cobbled incline.

 

Facing you, at the top of Gilbert Street, is the Park Hill Flats.

 

Gilbert Street is nasty little hill, then you have to walk up South Street to get to the top of the steps, possibly the 158 steps is the easy option.

I use it regularly and have got much fitter!

 

Beautiful view of Sheff, the dramatic skies/sunsets and the distant countryside from the top!!
