'A' Walk from Ings

Walk Leader: Jenny Mathias
Distance: 5 Miles with possible extensions

Total Ascent:

Although this is not a particularly long walk I have taken into account the time available and the possible adverse conditions.  If all goes well we can walk the ‘extra mile’.  

We leave Ings in a SW to w direction climbing out of the village, then under the railway track on a metalled road.  Then we head over the fields through a wood to Whasdike before heading upwards via Schoolknott Plantation onto School Knott itself.  From here, on the recce, we had great views of Windermere and snow covered mountains, they took our breath away.  We will make our way over Grandsire and down to Hag End!  Heading back towards Ings we will cross the fields through Yews or take the road back to Ings,  where food and drink will await our arrival.  

This is a lovely walk but not very challenging.
