Walk description
This is pleasant walk to enjoy the tranquillity and wildlife of Lathkill Dale. From the car park we follow the Limestone Way to cross Cales Dale. This involves a steep decent down 100 or so stone steps. We then circle Ash Grange Farm to join the eastern end of Lathkill Dale. From here is a nice easy decent following the river until we reach the village of Over Haddon where we climb out of the dale and cross a few fields to get back to the car park.
