'C' Walk from Grasmere 2017

Walk Leader: John Adamson
Total Distance:5.5 Miles app

and an ascent from 180 ft to 450 ft



The C Walk starts with a coffee and tea cake in a local tea shop in Grasmere. We leave the village of Grasmere and walk south along the lake with some beautiful views across the lake. We continue to the weir at the end of the lake where we join the end of Loughrigg Terrace path. We continue along the south side of Rydal Water to the footbridge and to the A591. After crossing the road to Rydal we join the Coffin Route to take us back to Grasmere. From the Coffin Route there are more beautiful views over Rydal Water. This is a lovely walk with no styles along the way but there are a few short walks up and down the dales. Anyone with a National Trust Card is welcome to visit Dove Cottage as we pass it at the end of the walk just before we cross the road to the car park.
