Trail directions
Start in front of the Visitor Centre. Follow the road R and turn R past the den building area. Bear R and follow the bridleway up through the beech wood towards a gate. Follow the path enjoying views over the Hope Valley. Where the path splits, bear L up the incline. Stop and dismount at the gate.
Taking care, go through the gate and cross the busy road heading towards another gate. Follow the path up towards White Edge Lodge. Skirt around the far side of the lodge, bear slightly right and head down the path towards the road.
Again taking care cross the road, go through the gate opposite and follow the bridleway back towards the Visitor Centre. Look out for a set of stone gate posts, there you will find the companion stone. Look through the hole in the gate post on your left and you will see the guidestoop.
