Description: None.
Access: During lambing season, access from the chase end parking (walking through the farmer's fields) is not allowed and it's about 35 min walk from Deepcar to Dragon's den. An alternative approach (recommended by the farmer) is to park just off the upper road, a few hundred metres further along (away from Sheffield) than Chase lodge, and follow the track along the edge of the woods, then through them to the edge top. This brings you out near the Kim Span area, which is a good warm up spot, before continuing aong to Dragons Den.
