Beacon Hill Toposcope

A beautiful gem just on the outskirts of Birmingham. The time we went was perfect as it wasn’t busy. We caught the perfect sunset and had a beautiful picnic. The park was fairly clean and litter free.

one of the best places to visit near Birmingham.

Great place for walks, open spaces for the dog. There are paths through the woods, walking or for the mountain bikers out there. Sufficient parking. And sometimes the ice cream van sits up there.

The car park is free but is bumpy and muddy so take your time.
Short walk upto the viewpoint from there but you can go walking for a few miles if thats your thing.
The views are actually very good on a clear day and the viewpoint/toposcope thing which is shaped a bit like a castle so kids love it.
Not the quietest place, lots of people also visiting.

It was ok. Good parking and it's free which is nice. The view is amazing and there is plenty of open space for little ones to run around. There's a nice little walk through the woods, it runs alongside a road and golf course though, so it's not quiet or good to see nature.
If people could take their litter home it would make it slightly better.
The biggest down side was the number of dogs off lead. Shouldn't be allowed and ruins it for people with small kids or dogs that don't like having another 'playful' dog in its face! We left after 20 minutes because there were dozens of dogs off the lead.

A great viewpoint that looks over the Birmingham skyline. Convenient parking (be aware it gets locked up at dusk) and loads of benches - very tranquil watching the sun slip away and the lights of the city coming to life. Grab a hot drink, some good company and be at one with your true self ❤️

Nice big car park. The only problem is too many bumps in it and some are big too. You get some great views of the city. Great walk round. There is a cafe at the bottom were the golf course starts.

Rode to the hilltop with my son's. we started at HANDSWORTH park. Was our first time so was looking forward to seeing the place and wasn't disappointed. Family friendly atmosphere. Great place for family get-together'picnics- etc'etc.
