Accesso

Dove Stone is located just outside Greenfield. Parking on site for around 140 cars, parking available around a mile walk away (downhill to the reservoir, uphill to get back) in a local field for £10. A lot of the path is gravel or cobbled, and because its a reservoir a lot of it is incredibly exposed to the weather. You can take a 2.5 mile walk around the edge of the Dove Stone reservoir.
