Viewpoints & Picnic Spots in Stoke-on-Trent

There's only one proper viewpoint on the books for Stoke-on-Trent, and it's a longer trip out to Matlock Bath rather than anything on your doorstep. Heights of Abraham gets you up over the valley by cable car, then underground for two cavern tours, before you're loose in a hilltop park with play areas and views back down over the town. Tickets start from £16, and the ages 4-15 pricing band gives you a clue this suits families with school-age children rather than very small toddlers. There's parking, toilets, a cafe and a restaurant on site, so you can make a full day of it without having to plan around bringing your own food. Pack a picnic anyway if you fancy eating outdoors, since there's a picnic area for exactly that.
