14. River Lathkill
River Lathkill, which has its source at Monyash, near Bakewell, flows through the Derbyshire Dales until it joins the River Wye at Rowsley. It is unique, as the only river in the area that flows exclusively over limestone, and it provides a very relaxing walking trail. Depending on which direction you decide to walk, you could end at either the Peacock at Rowsley or The Bulls Head at Monyash. Photo: Photo © Andrew Hill (cc-by-sa/2.0)
