하우덴 저수지 주변 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Derwent Dam is very impressive whether it has water falling or not always worth a visit and close to fairholmes visitor centre

Brutal climb! But downhill it's just amazing !!! Rocky !

After rain this is even more impressive

Outer Edge 541m P23 (1775ft) (DoBIH Hill ID: 7729) [JNSA 5996] TP5253 - Outer Edge S1771 County of Yorkshire Definitive List summit. Peak District National Park Definitive List summit.

Very nice area in summer to have a lunch stop, can get busy

Nice area in summer for chilling next to the river

Good view looking down to Howden

If you’re on a gravel bike i would avoid! Miserable

Derwent Dam, is a stunning neo-Gothic construction that far transcends function alone. Built between 1902 and 1916, it is 340 m in length and 35 m high. The dam is famously linked to WWII history; RAF’s 617 Squadron, the “Dambusters”, trained here using “bouncing bombs”.

View from bottom of Derwent Dam

Easy to follow the signs for directions to the crash site as without them the area is so vast.

Beautiful picnic spot all year round, great in summer to have a quick dip as quite deep in places.

Check before you go as it’s not always overflowing. Lots of beautiful circular walks ranging from 3 miles to 22 miles.

Good walk, nice views

Approach the base of the Derwent Dam from Fairholmes car park and walk across the open field to get up close and personal with the overflowing torrent of white water. It’s a spectacular sight and the noise is incredible. Feel the mist generated by the cascade on your face. Wonderful viewpoint for photographs!

An Ethel summit at 548m above sea level with stunning views over the moorlands

This is a trail that’s close to my heart, it’s so beautiful but also very manageable for someone with not so good fitness, once you climb the first part away from Kings Oak roundabout it’s easy going walking along the tree lined track, the reward for the climb is the stunningly beautiful packhorse bridge that was removed in the 1940’s from it’s original site in the village of Derwent and rebuilt in it’s present position at slippery stones, after crossing the bridge the landscape here then opens up to display the open moorland peaks beyond.

Busy all through the year..only one tip to recommend. Get there early

Margery Hill is 546m above sea level, topped with a trig point. It gets very boggy up here!

Great place to stop for a drink and/or a bite to eat before, during or after a ride, the car park is handy and there’s toilets, there’s also a bike maintenance station and a wash too, the visitors centre is only closed 2 days a year, Christmas Day and Boxing Day?
