COVID WALKS JANUARY 2021

                                                                                                     Photo from Geoff

 

Another selection of beautiful, skilful, imaginative and entertaining photos to brighten up this rather grim period. 

Please bear in mind that they were taken at different times and different places and under different travel restrictions, some before Christmas, some before New Year and some very recently. Just enjoy them.

If you yourself have some photos and would like to show them, please send them to me and I will gladly include them.

Enjoy them and think ahead to when we are free to walk and chat in safety, thanks to the many generous people who keep us safe and the remarkable scientists who ensure our safety.

As always, thanks to the photographers – Alan W, Marcia, Allan J, Mike C, Mike K, Mike B and Geoff for their skilful help.

GLENRIDDING via POOLEY BRIDGE 3rd MARCH 2024

Image
                                                 What a wonderful day’s walking !         What spectacular scenery and conditions !   With reports that the Kirkstone Pass was blocked by snow the route was amended so that the coach entered the valley from the Pooley Bridge end. Some groups revised their planned walks but most were just delighted to see a good depth of snow on the fells above about 1500’ and had come prepared for it, Stuart’s group was first off the coach near Pooley Bridge to commence a 12 mile walk along the eastern side of the Lake - through Howtown, Sandwick and Silver Bay with panoramic views of the snow on Helvellyn and its close neighbours. Pat and Simon’s groups started from Watermillock to visit the popular local waterfalls and then followed the newly established lake side path to Glenridding. Th...

BARBON to SEDBERGH 7th July 2024

Image
  There were four walks available this week, and three private. In fact, five of the groups followed very similar routes – but at different speeds, obviously ! Starting from Barden Park - Paul’s, Geoff’s and Stuart’s groups headed for Castle Knott and the Calf Top ridge. Following the ridge north, they turned at Combe Scar to descend by Long Bank and Brown Knott to the valley. Here they picked up the Dales Way and Pennine Journey path to Sedbergh. Approximately 12 miles.  And then the rain really started ! Meanwhile the Oldham Group had travelled south east from Barbon to cross to the Marble Steps Pot area and ascend Grargarath Fell. They followed this ridge to Great Coum and down to Dent and back to Sedbergh - demanding 17.5 miles. Two groups stared from Sedbergh itself. Pat led her group over the Settlebeck Bridge to follow the twists and turns of the River Rawthey till it joined the River Lune near the spectacular Lune Viaduct, and then back through the lanes and farm...

Broughton in Furness 23rd June 2024

Image
                                             It is not the most popular part of the Lakes District but it is exceptionally beautiful with winding lanes, paths and spectacular views. On the one side we can the sea and on the other the glorious mountains. The Oldhams were the first off the coach as early as Penny Bridge to commence a fearsome 17.5 mile trek south down the Ulverston Penninsula, to cross to Askham in Furness and then turn for Broughton. However they failed to achieve their target – they only did 17 miles! Gawthwaite was the next stop where most of the walkers left the coach. Two groups – Steph’s and Stuart’s headed south while the others – John’s, Mike J’s and Mike B’s headed north. Stuart aimed for Gunson Height ridge and followed it down to Bank House Moor. At Askham in Furness they took the Coastal Path to Kirby in Furness, Foxfield Bank and finally ...
