Description - Tour of the Lake District by Jim Reid
With a flavour of each of the main Lakeland valleys, and
time to stop and wonder at their charms, the walk
described in this book leads quickly away from the busy
tourist centres to the quiet pleasures of the fell
country. The shepherds and drovers chose their paths
well, logical links from one valley to the next, and many
of these ancient ways have been chosen for this walk. All
footpaths and bridleways used are on established rights
of way. The walk starts at the railway terminus at
Windermere town, quickly leaving the crowds behind and
passes through Ambleside, the Langdale valley, Coniston,
Dunnerdale, Eskdale, Wasdale, Ennerdale, Buttermere,
Newlands Valley, Keswick, Borrowdale, Grasmere then
Ullswater, before returning back to Windermere via the
Troutbeck valley.
