Hiking
From the summit of Bunster Hill, you get magnificent views over the Staffordshire/Derbyshire border countryside, including a fabulous vista over Thorpe Cloud across the valley. Be sure to stop for a moment and take it all in. In spring and summer, the hillside bursts into colour as wildflowers blossom, too.

The area is open access, but I'd stick to the ridges where possible for the best views.

Hiking
Try and park in Ilam and avoid dovedale car parks if possible. We went from Ilam cross the back way to bunster and saw 2 people and that was at the summit. 0n the way down we saw two more people until we arrived at dovedale on route to Thorpe there must have been 5k people there. The que to get across stepping stones at 11am was about 30mins. So we waded through the river.!! On the way back from Thorpe cloud , stopped for a lovely coffee and cider at izaak Walton hotel.
