Cressbrook Dale

Highlight • Cave

A gorgeous and steep descent or ascent, depending on which direction you're approaching from. So much to see, from ancient rock formations (including the beautiful Peter's Stone) to wooded dells, and a variety of tracks and paths which give you the opportunity to look at this wonderful natural area from all angles. Very peaceful, very beautiful and very good for the soul!

Highlight • Viewpoint

A beautiful natural feature that dominates Cressbrook Dale as you wander through the dale floor. The wind can whistle through here, and it gives you a great vantage point to stop, climb up to and enjoy a sandwich while you take a few minutes rest!
