Robin Hood's Stride

Visited here as part or a circular walk from the village of Elton.
I'd never heard of Robin Hood's Stride before, but found it a wonderful place, expansive views over the beautiful countryside, and well worth exploring and scrambling the rocks.
Looks popular with rock climbers; a few were practicing on the vertical rock faces.
There's a hermit's cave to visit not far off the Limestone Way.

Such a great place for bouldering and scrambling, I visited last year for my first ever bouldering trip outdoors and again this week with my wife and young son. We all had plenty to climb, it's got some very progressive problems to work on. For families with young children, it's tricky to get access with a buggy but not impossible if you carry it over a few obstacles.

Lovely place for a walk and a climb of the rocks (easy climb too, one for the whole family).

The view from the top of the rocks is stunning too. Just countryside for miles! Well worth it!

I would definitely recommend and would go back again for sure.

The view from the top is incredible; you can see all over the land and even the stone circle in the distance. To get up the rocks is quite easy.

There are a few ways up around the back which I think is an easy route to walk up rather than go up the front.

It is a great place to visit. It was a little busy when I was there on a Thursday afternoon.

There is no proper parking, except for a small layby on the road called

(Cratcliffe Parking Area) on the B5056 road.

The parking area, which fits about 8 cars. The rocks are about a 15-minute walk from the layby on the road.

Directions Walk from the road until you reach the cattle grid (See Photos). Follow the path up the cattle grid and there is a two gates.

The gate on the left leads to the Robin Hood Stride rocks and the stone circles, and the gate on the right leads to the hermit cave.

The two are not that far apart, to be honest, from each other, but the directions will save you a bit of time.

Fabulous. 5min walk from road. Lovely views. Recommended.

Nice little walk.The views were lovely

Was quite lucky to get it to myself on an almost silent day hardly a breath of wind only the birds chirping away.

Beautiful walk, it was a easy climb to the top. Stunning countryside views. Plenty of walkways to choose from, woodlands Close by. Quite a few country lanes to get through before arriving here. Not much parking either. That's the only downside
