Bakewell Bridge
Whether you like guided walks or going out alone, walks in Bakewell mean seeing the sights and sounds of a very popular town. The Riverside Path is a great one for the elderly and infirm, the pushchair and the toddlers too.
To walk along the River Wye, feed the ducks and other wildfowl is a popular tradition and a memorable one for sure. Marvel at the huge trout in the crystal clear waters, especially if you look over the Gothic arched bridge. Walk further and meander alongside the green riverbanks and see the showground, the home of the Bakewell show.
You may simply wander round all the streets, finding new places you never knew were there before. Meet up with old friends and new and sample the delights of Bakewell, pubs and restaurants.
