This Boot Is Made For Walking
From the craggy flanks of Scafell Pike, Harter Fell and Whin Rigg down through woods to green pastures, these tours encompass all Lakeland scenery from rugged to rural and will keep you clear of the crowded honey pots.

This tour includes bed & breakfast accommodation, a tour pack (including colour coded route directions and a map), luggage transfers and emergency telephone assistance.
2 Days, 1 Night
Walk 1 - Muncaster Fell, Ravenglass & Muncaster Castle. A linear walk making use of 'Ratty', the Ravendale & Eskdale Railway, to show you the full variety this offer has to offer. Navigate across Muncaster Fell, well-known for offering a real fell walking experience where you will have really good views from the mountains to the coast. Around Ravenglass you will find lots of history to visit and wonderful contrasting views of coast and fell. Continue your walk past Muncaster Tarn, one of the smallest and also one of the few privately owned lakes in the district.
Walk 2 - Hardknott and Mosedale. An easy day or the biggest challenge of the tour - it's your choice! The short route is easy to navigate and stays below 300 feet. The long route takes you up to 1,300 feet at the top of Hardknott Pass and Mosedale. If you do accept the challenge you will enjoy a real sense of isolation in this rugged landscape.

This tour runs as above, with the following walk on day 3.
Walk 3 - Blae Tarn, Sinney Tarn Eskdale Green and Stanley Force. This walk takes you past Eskdale Corn Mill which dates from the 13th century and ground the corn for the Dale until the 1920s when it was converted to produce electricity. You also have the opportunity to view Stanley Force. These 62 foot falls are named after residents of Dalegarth Hall and are the finest in the area, thanks in part to the romantic setting at the head of this deep and verdant ghyll or ravine.
