A guidebook to walking the Cumbria Way, a 188km (73 mile) route between Ulverston and Carlisle. Suitable for walkers with some experience, this long-distance route through the heart of the Lake District can be walked in 5 days, but there is plenty of opportunity to plan your itinerary for a more easy-going 7 to 8 days.
This largely low-level route is described here in five stages of between 19 and 26 kms (12 – 16 miles). Alternative mountain days can be added to include the Coniston Fells, Glaramara and Skiddaw.
Route described from south to north with 1:50,000 OS mapping for each stage
Detailed information on accommodation, facilities and public transport along the route
Variations to the itinerary suggested depending on required difficulty and time frame
Route summary tables and accommodation listings help you plan your itinerary
