Tips from locals
A short, but challenging, climb to the top of this Peak. See if you can spot the Manor from the top, then take a paddle at the Stepping Stones at Dovedale below.
Thorpe Cloud is one of the tallest peaks in the Pennine mountain range that makes up a portion of the Peak District. The route to the summit is part of several popular hikes in the region – ranging from less than a mile to a full-day hike – with plenty of stunning panoramas of green rolling hills and wide-open sky. If you really want to get out and enjoy the British countryside, start from the town of Dovedale and visit attractions like the Stepping Stones before heading up the mountainside. Thorpe Cloud rises to a height of 942 ft, so you'll need a moderate level of fitness to reach the top. It can be blustery in the winter so it's best to save this adventure for the summer season.
