Why do this walk?
Peaceful walking in the quieter areas of the Lake District National Park.
Varied walking along forest trails, lake shores and remote valleys.
Starts and finishes in the bustling market town of Keswick.
Vale of Lorton
This is our kindest holiday in one of the quietest areas of the Lake District National Park. It is based around the peaceful lakes of Loweswater, Crummock and Buttermere in the North West corner of the Lake District, and uses well defined paths, forestry tracks and country lanes.
The distances covered each day are relatively short with the exception of one mountain pass involving an easy climb of 200metres. The route generally keeps to relatively flat valley bottoms and there is plenty of time to take it easy, enjoy some spectacular scenery and soak up the tranquility.
Our Holidays
We offer two holidays in the Vale of Lorton. One is for 4 nights and the other is 6 nights. Make your choice depending on your available time and the pace you find most comfortable.
