Hiking

Dovestone Edge provides a clifftop viewpoint where you are surrounded by stunning scenery. The panoramic views from the Edge out over Dovestone and Yeoman Hay reservoirs are simply super beautiful. It is a perfect venue for the hiking enthusiasts, as the area is perforated with good walking trails to take advantage of the high vantage viewpoints. The area is noted for its quirky rock formations, of which nearby is the famous 'Trinnacle,’ a remote and highly exposed rock formation that is famous for its dramatic photogenic appeal.
