Seemingly rising out of nowhere, Blackingstone Rock is a behemoth, isolated granite tor. It lies just off the road and is well worth locking your bike up at the bottom and scaling the rock for its outstanding views.

While you could pop on your climbing shoes and scale the rock face itself, the easier route is via the Victorian stairs that are laid into the side.

Fabulous view of the rock from this lane, and look out for the steps and rail carved into the side of the tor too.

YOH!

You can climb on top of the rock and take a better panorama than me
