Overview

Starting from Monyash, we will be walking mainly on field paths and tracks interspersed with a little road walking to Over Haddon.  As with all Derbyshire walks, there are excellent views of the surrounding countryside. We return to Monyash in the Dale following the course of the river Lathkill, parts of which disappear due to the old lead-mining shafts and workings drawing the water underground. 

If you would like to join this walk please contact the leader using the email link.
