Introduction to the Lake District
Two or five days of guided walks for newcomers to hill walking who
would like to start venturing onto the lower Lake District fells.
If you would like a relaxed, sociable day out in the hills with plenty
of time to take photos and not too much uphill then this is the course
for you.
To book a place on this course please email us or call us on 07984 410230 first with your choice of dates to find out if there are still places available and then follow the instructions on our "How to Book" page.
Course Content
The whole course will be taken at a relaxed pace with plenty of time to take
in your surroundings and enjoy the scenery.
No hill walking experience is necessary and only a basic level of fitness is
required but we will be out for around five hours each day. Each course is
different and designed to suit the participants but we will certainly show
you some fantastic views, spot plenty of local flora and fauna and give you
a great idea of just what the Lake District has to offer.
If there are any particular hills you would really like to climb just let us know and we will do our best to fit them in.
