Some of the moorland nearby is boggy so wear appropriate footwear if you go that way. The pole is accessed by a path though.

Stanage Pole is a landmark that denotes the border between Derbyshire and South Yorkshire. A wooden pole has stood here for hundreds of years and would have been useful for travellers on the old packhorse route, Long Causeway. If you’re hiking here, expect to be impressed. The views and landscape are first-class (if a little boggy).
