This is the easier side of the river Dove, with a surfaced trail leading from the car park to the famous stepping stones. You can make this a loop by crossing at the stepping stones and following the rougher trail back on the other side of the river, or climb Thorpe Cloud and drop back down to the bridge and car park.
