This is a lovely short walk to the picturesque Ilam rock, at only 1.5 miles each way from Milldale with a good paved path, it is accessible to most. You can easily double the distance if you wanted to by walking further down the river to reach the stepping Stones at Dovedale.
This is such a beautiful part of the Peak District, the water is crystal clear, but because it is so easily accessible, it does get really busy so make sure to plan your visit.
There is also a snack bar for refreshments in Milldale & toilets.
