Walk B, Kendal, 13th July 2024

Walk lead by Pay Guy, 9 Miles 900ft of ascent

The walk this month starts in the busy town of Kendal. After making our way through the town and ascending near to the golf course we cross the A591 over a footbridge. Then it is an undulating walk to Cunswick Scar and then walking along a limestone escarpment to Scout Scar. The walk across the scars is at a fairly high level and we have good views of the surrounding countryside and the Southern Lake district. We will visit the 'Mushroom' and walk along to the Trig point to get the views.

Unfortunately due to road closures in the area we will have to return to Kendal on almost the same route as the way out to the Scars, this also means a little more distance than we usually do but it is a delightful walk.

The walk is about 9 miles long and has a total ascent of 900ft.
