When the Derwent reservoir is full, the water flows out through the 'plugholes' at the southern end. A mesmerising spectacle when there's a lot of water flowing and can be enhanced by a great sunrise.

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?

The National Park operated visitor centre has lots of information and a small shop selling maps etc. Visitor centre open Mon to Fri 10:00 - 15:30. Sat & Sun 9:30 - 16:30. The kiosk is independently operated and sells light meals, snacks, drinks and cake. Cafe open every day from 8:00 until at least 18:00, later if there are a lot of people around.

Watch out for the 'begging' ducks 🙂

Great walk and spectacular to see when the water is over flowing.

Another view of Bamford Edge from one of Ladybower Reservoirs "plugholes" the affectionate name given to the reservoirs overflows. To be honest they scare me.

The path along the top of Ladybower Dam affords a wonderful view of the reservoir nestling in the Upper Derwent Valley. You also get a close look at the reservoir overflows (essentially giant plug holes), which draw photographers from far and wide. Ladybower was constructed between 1935-43 after the villages of Derwent and Ashopton were flooded (residents were rehomed nearby). It was officially opened by King George VI on September 24, 1945.

Refreshment kiosk (independently operated) Everyday - 8am until at least 6pm (later if there is demand)
