Make sure to select the Tarr Inn when getting directions to the Tarr-Steps. You cannot reach the parking from the other side of the river, unless you have a suitable Jeep or similar which can manage driving through the little river. Otherwise it will cost you 30 minutes to go all the way back and around to the right side.
