Lake District: Low Level and Lake Walks
Cicerone Press (Verlag)
978-1-85284-734-0 (ISBN)
This guidebook describes the best low-level walking in the Lake District, enjoying walks around the lakes, smaller fells and beauty spots such as Windermere, Wansfell Pike and Tarn Hows.
New visitors to the Lake District will be delighted by the selection of walks taking in some of the most picturesque parts of the National Park, such as Windermere, Grasmere, and Ambleside as well as quieter areas like Buttermere and Thirlmere. Even those who have done a lot of walking in the Lake District may have missed some of the beautiful low-level walks included in this book.
Routes range from 7 to 17km and are suitable for walkers of all abilities. Each route is illustrated with OS map extracts and present no technical difficulties over terrain from wide constructed trails to narrow paths on open fell.
Located across the whole of the Lake District, the walks are divided into five sections: South Lakes (Windermere, Coniston, Duddon and the south), Central Lakes (Ambleside, Langdale, Grasmere and Thirlmere), Western Valleys (Eskdale, Wasdale and the Buttermere area), North Lakes (Keswick, Borrowdale and Derwentwater) and Eastern Lakes (Ullswater and Patterdale).
Londoner by birth, but Cumbrian by choice, Vivienne Crow is an award-winning writer and photographer. Based near the Lake District, she has written more than a dozen guides to the national park and writes popular walking columns that appear in several north Cumbrian newspapers.
