B Walk from Ambleside 2015

Walk Leader: Jennifer Mathias
Total Distance: 7.5 miles
Total ascent/descent: 2000ft





This is a lovely Lake Districk walk. There is some road walking and the rest of the way is firm paths.  There are also a few stiles to climb over.  Although there is some climbing, which is steep there will be time  to go at a steady pace, and the rewards of achievement and satisfaction worthwhile.  Wansfell is 1,588ft , it is not a hard climb, it starts gently but there is a steeper pull up to the top. The views are stunning along the way. From the top you can have a magnificent view of much of  southern and central Lakeland including the Conistone, Langdale. Scafell and High Street Fells plus almost the whole of Windermere and even to Morecambe Bay. Surely all worth a little effort. Dropping down we go through the village of Troutbeck then up along Robin Lane before descending into the car park where the coach is.
