HIDDEN GEMS
A great place to visit in Huddersfield is
Castle Hill, which is one of the highest
peaks in Huddersfield; you can see the
town from the most incredible angle.
If you like the atmosphere of a live
game, John Smith’s stadium is perfect
for you. Huddersfield has a long
tradition of successful sports teams
and this continues today. Home to the
mighty Huddersfield Giants RLC and
Huddersfield Town FC, the John Smith’s
stadium is just one of Huddersfield’s
iconic landmarks. Even if you aren’t a
huge sports fan, you may find yourself
there to support your flatmates’ interests
and combine a few drinks with the lively
social atmosphere of the arena. You may
surprise yourself and have a really good
time (even if you still don’t understand
the game).
Although the assumption may be that
Huddersfield is quiet and there is little
to do, if you are imaginative or even look
slightly outside the town centre, there are
many unusual and great places to see.
Greenhead Park is only five minutes’ walk
from the town centre. It is truly beautiful,
the perfect place to find your own
hideaway spot and get your head stuck
in a book by the sweet little pond, rather
than being locked up in the library.
If you’re after something a little different
,then Hardcastle Crags in Hebden Bridge
is a great place to visit. Enjoy escaping
on one of many footpaths that will take
you on your new adventure. There are
also the famous stepping stones that

Personally, I love to shop. Not just
to spend, but to stare in awe at the
displays. Some may find this sad
but for those who can relate, Byram
Arcade is the place to go. Not only
is Huddersfield’s oldest Victorian
arcade unique and inspiring, the
stores contained within it are too.
You can find so many unusual
items from arts and crafts and
intricate handmade clothing to
great tattooists. Plus, there are
several cafés and restaurants to
choose from.
