A Peak District Hidden Gem
via the Monsal trail
Exploring the charming Chee Dale Stepping Stones along the River Wye, a popular destination in the Peak District National Park.
Our route initially follows the Monsal trail, before veering off to track the river, crossing two sets of stepping stones. Chee Dale Stepping Stones are one of the Peak District’s hidden gems, tucked away near Millers Dale. A must-see for any explorer!
This walk is full of little ups and down, leading through a dramatic limestone gorge where towering cliffs rise on either side, and the path winds over flat stone slabs set directly in the river. It’s a magical, slightly adventurous walk, especially after a bit of rain, and is popular with walkers seeking something more off-the-beaten track than nearby Monsal Dale.
With its mix of wild scenery, shady woodland, and the thrill of hopping across the stones, Chee Dale is a fabulous spot for photographers and nature lovers who don’t mind a little scrambling about.
The Details:
Total Ascent: 509m; 1670ft
