The River Wye is a limestone river in the Peak District of Derbyshire, England. It is 15 miles (24 km) in length, [2] and is one of the major tributaries of the River Derwent. The river's source lies just west of Buxton, on Axe Edge Moor. It then flows east, along a route roughly followed by the A6 road. It enters the Peak District, flows just south of Tideswell, then through Ashford in the Water and Bakewell, and south of Haddon Hall, before meeting the River Derwent at Rowsley. The main tributary of the river is the River Lathkill, which enters approximately one mile from its mouth. A pleasant walk is possible alongside much of the length of the river, mostly following an abandoned railway line, part of which today is the Monsal Trail which provides some spectacular views of the river. In Monsal Dale the railway line emerges from a tunnel at Monsal Head, over a viaduct high above the river below.
