Getting very popular now with hikers

I would respectfully note that this cave is not the easiest to access. https://delta-exploits.net/

Rocky path and fallen trees. Hard going when wet

Challenging, narrow, rough and gnarly hike over slippery limestone rocks & stones and through patches of scratchy hawthorns. Like horizontal mountaineering, this section of Monk's Dale is the wild sibling of the other Limestone Dales in the area

Don’t be fooled by the photo. The next mile and a half through the Dale is very challenging, rocky and with a number of fallen trees to negotiate.

One of the nicest segments of the walk along the river and definitely great for kids. The stones are less slippery than they look, but still be careful not to get wet feet.

Bradford Dale is an idyllic wooded gorge that’s full of wildlife. The crystalline River Bradford flows from Middleton by Youlgrave to Alport, where it meets the River Lathkill. Along the way, the river’s course is interrupted by a succession of weirs and pools to encourage trout to breed. These pools are filled with watercress, king cups, reeds and rushes to provide a habitat for birds including the elusive kingfisher. On the stretch of Bradford Dale underneath Youlgrave, there’s a purpose-built swimming area on the river and expansive meadows for people to stretch out on.

Lathkill Head Cave is a cavern within the limestone of the gorge that forms Lathkill Dale, in the White Peak area of the Peak District, in Derbyshire. The cave mouth is found to the east of Monyash. In wet weather, the water trickling in innumerable rills into the cave creates a stream gushing forth from its mouth to form the River Lathkill, whence the name of the cave. In dry weather the headwater of the river is formed from the springs a little below. The rocks here are fissured and complex. Cavers have found a number of entrances into the cave which are explored by the fearless.
