If there’s a better simpler low level walk in the UK than this one then feel free to let me know. A few miles, a bit of woodland, cascading streams, a large lake, a tunnel and a cracking village with a couple of pubs and a couple of coffee shops. It is a fabulous place to walk, the fact that the views are absolutely jaw dropping just adds to the brilliance of the place. I’ll be doing this one again for sure.

I have a feeling there will be quite a few shots of Fleetwith Pike at the end of Buttermere today!!
Snow topped Grasmoor ( I was up there back in Oct 2015 here) and Mellbreak on the left. The Loweswater fells in the distance
Stunning
