After a fair climb through Eyam and beyond, this is a great place to stop and catch your breath. Views stretch over the gritstone grandeur of Curbar Edge and Baslow Edge and across the valley below to the Chatsworth Estate. And when you’re done, a fantastic descent awaits.

Steady climb up to the first descent. Great views down the valley with a historical spot-The Riley Graves, a tragic burial ground of a Peak District plague family.

As it says on the tin, great views across the valley, good excuse for a breather after all the climbing
