A gorgeous and steep descent or ascent, depending on which direction you're approaching from. So much to see, from ancient rock formations (including the beautiful Peter's Stone) to wooded dells, and a variety of tracks and paths which give you the opportunity to look at this wonderful natural area from all angles. Very peaceful, very beautiful and very good for the soul!
