A Beautiful Walk with Hidden Gems – Perfect for Families and Dogs
莱迪鲍尔水库的点评
点评：Ladybower Reservoir is a fantastic place for a medium-length hike and a wonderful day out in the Peak District.
You can walk all the way around the reservoir if you want, but in our opinion, the real highlight is on the opposite side of the dam, where the water flows downstream.
As you make your way down the hill, you’ll find a lovely stream with small waterfalls that follows the valley. There is a marked walking trail, but unfortunately, it doesn’t actually take you down to the most beautiful parts of the stream. To reach them, you’ll need to leave the official path and follow one of the well-worn informal trails that many other visitors have clearly used before. It’s not an official route, but it’s where we discovered the most breathtaking scenery.
We found crystal-clear water, countless little waterfalls, large rocks perfect for sitting and relaxing, and plenty of peaceful spots to enjoy a snack or a chocolate while listening to the sound of the flowing water.
Many people were happily standing ankle-deep in the stream, and a few ventured in up to their knees. The water isn’t deep, but it is extremely cold, even on a hot summer’s day. That’s because it flows directly from Ladybower Reservoir, whose water stays very cold year-round. Swimming in the reservoir itself is not permitted, and there are signs on the dam warning visitors about this. Once you feel the temperature of the stream, you immediately understand why! The water is absolutely freezing—but also beautifully clear.
This is the kind of place where you can easily spend hours exploring, taking photos, sitting on the rocks, or simply enjoying nature.
It’s an excellent destination for families, even better if you’re visiting with a dog, and perfect if you’re looking for a scenic walk that isn’t too demanding.
The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s a shame that the official walking trail doesn’t lead visitors to these spectacular riverside spots. They’re easily the most beautiful part of the whole area, yet you have to leave the marked path to find them.
Despite that, I would absolutely recommend visiting Ladybower Reservoir. It’s one of the most beautiful places we’ve explored in the Peak District.

翻译：莱迪鲍尔水库是进行中等长度徒步旅行的绝佳去处，也是在峰区度过愉快一天的理想之地。
如果你愿意，可以沿着水库四周全程徒步，但在我们看来，最值得一看的景致其实在水坝的另一侧——那里有水流顺山谷而下。
当你沿着山坡往下走时，会看到一条美丽的溪流，溪中还有一些小瀑布。虽然有条标记的徒步小径，但遗憾的是……实际上，这条路线并不会带你到溪流最美丽的部分。要想抵达那里，你需要离开官方步道，沿着许多游客之前也走过的那些非正式的小径前行。虽然这些并非官方规定的路线，但正是在那里我们发现了最令人惊叹的景致。
我们看到了清澈见底的河水、数不清的小瀑布，还有那些非常适合坐下来休息的大石头。这里有许多宁静的角落，可以一边聆听流水声，一边享用零食或巧克力。
许多人开心地站在齐脚踝深的溪水中，也有少数人敢把水没到膝盖。虽然水并不深，但即使在炎热的夏日里也极其冰冷——因为这些水直接来自莱迪鲍尔水库，那里的水温终年都很低。水库内禁止游泳，坝上也有告示牌提醒游客这一点。一旦感受到溪水的温度，你立刻就会明白原因！水冰冷得简直难以置信——但同时也清澈得令人心醉。
这是一个非常适合花上数小时来探索的地方：可以拍照、坐在岩石上休息，或者单纯享受大自然的美好。
这里是家庭出游的绝佳去处，如果带着狗狗一同前往则更加有趣。若你想进行一次轻松又风景优美的散步，这里也是理想之选。我给它4星而非5星的唯一原因就是：很遗憾，官方规划的步行路线并没有引导游客前往这些绝美的河畔景点。这些地方无疑是整个区域中最美丽的地方，但游客必须离开标记好的步道才能找到它们。
即便如此，我仍然极力推荐大家去参观拉德博尔水库。它是我们在峰区游览过的最美丽的地方之一。
