Leader: Jennifer Matthias
Distance: 6+ miles
This walk is mainly on hard paths and minor roads. It can be extended if we have the time and weather to enable that.
After crossing the main road we will make our way into Staveley, where there are toilets. Then we will head south under the railway, which runs from Oxenholme to Windermere. Joining the Dales Way we have an undulating road, which will afford good views on a clear day. Leaving the Dales way we continue on the road towards Borwick Fold before turning onto a gated track, which is downhill, once more under the railway back into Ings.
B Walk
Leader: Gwyn Jones
Distance: app 5 miles
A circular walk to the North West of Ings around Banner Rigg
C Walk
Leader: John Smith
Distance: 3 miles
The recce for this walk took place in dry conditions in mid December by a party of three. Just as well as we were lost at one stage (the map was not easy to follow) when a farmer came to our rescue. We now have it sussed !!
The walk is no more than 3 miles over level terrain - fields, tracks and tarmac - and has some good views. We start by walking away from the pub and under a railway, on up a slight gradient then off to the right across pasture towards Wasdyke. Turn left up a second slight gradient on tarmac to Yews with a further left turn to rejoin the road back to the railway arch and down to the pub.
