Overview

This Ladybower Reservoir and Derwent Edge circular walk starts in Fairholmes and heads up onto the moors above Ladybower and Upper Derwent Reservoirs, walking along Derwent Edge to the Wheel Stones and the Salt Cellar, before dropping back down Dovestone Clough from the trig pillar at Black Tor. Car park charge is £6/day so it is advisable to car share where possible.
