Overview

Starting from Monyash the walk goes to the Lathkil Dale

The dale follows the dale alongside a river which disappears underground in places.

It should be noted that the path is extremely rough in places.

At the end of dale we take a steep path up to Over Haddon where we have a picnic lunch with beautiful views.

We then walk back down to the dale and then with a number of steep rises and descents reach the Limestone Way which again gives lovely views.

There is a steep descent to Cale Dale with numerous steps and an untidy climb to One Ash Farm.

Afterwards we return to Monyash via an undulating route
