We love nothing more than lacing up our hiking boots and exploring the trail less travelled!

With its rugged fells, softly flowing streams, glittering tarns and wide open lakes, the Lake District is England’s most popular National Park. Covering 2,362 square kilometres of protected land, it’s still easy to find an isolated felltop to breathe in the fresh Cumbrian air and escape modern life here.”

Ramble through the fells and sip hot chocolate in a rustic café daily. Try wild swimming in deep, blue tarns. Explore the Lake District’s thriving food scene – from farm shops to wood-fired pizza restaurants. Wander through galleries and bookshops to soak up this area’s literary and artistic culture. Come nightfall, tuck into a hearty dinner beside an open fire in a country pub, before bundling yourself into a fellside cabin.

This is where time goes slowly and the world’s weight feels so far away.

In this guidebook, you’ll find 15 walks with full route descriptions and hand-drawn maps, as well as over 250 pages of carefully selected sites of interest, pubs, cafés, villages and accommodation across the National Park to make planning your next trip to Lakeland a lot easier.

DESCRIPTION

Ramble Guides: Lake District is the second book in the Ramble Guides series, written by Athena Mellor. This series of walking and outdoor guides is designed for the modern explorer; for the person who wants to head into the wild with an open mind and an open heart; to wander through forests and over fells, across brooks and beside lochs; and then retreat to a cosy cafe for a flat white and homemade cake, or to a local pub serving traditional beer beside an open fire.
