About the subject.....
Dovedale is a popular dale in the Peak District, England. It is owned by the National Trust, and annually attracts over a million visitors. The valley is cut by the River Dove and runs for just over 3 miles between Milldale in the north and a wooded ravine near Thorpe Cloud and Bunster Hill in the south.
The wooded ravine contains an attractive set of stepping stones which are often featured on calendars, and two caves known as the Dove Holes. Dovedale's other attractions include rock pillars such as Ilam Rock, Viator's Bridge, and the limestone carvings Lovers' Leap and Reynard's Cave.
