Robin Hood’s Stride is a distinctive rock formation on the Limestone Way. According to legend, folklore hero Robin Hood once jumped between the two raised stone pillars. When you see how far apart they are, you may not fancy your chances.

With care, it's possible to climb the rocks safely for breathtaking views. Be sure to pay a visit to Nine Stones Close stone circle, Cratcliffe Rocks and the Hermit's Cave, which are all nearby.
