On the River Bradford, next to the village of Youlgrave, there’s a designated wild swimming spot. It’s been carved out to be deep enough for swimming and is very popular with locals and visitors alike. There are meadows beside the river to sunbathe and relax after having a dip. It can get busy here at popular times, of course.
