You can see the general route here as shown on a 3D screen capture from OS Maps. It’s relatively flat in lake District terms!  Starts in the distance from Elterwater then goes to the left of the pic to Skelwith Bridge then onto Loughrigg Tarn and back. See map below.

I hope this website helps you plan some superb outdoors adventures! I'm probably preaching to the converted - but please respect the outdoors, don't trash it and leave only footprints.

I’m hopeful that being outdoors makes us appreciate the natural world more and want to look after it and live more sustainably. We’ve only got one planet on which we all rely on - and I think if we each can do our little bit, added together, it spreads like ripples through a pond, and changes the world.
