A linear walk, mostly low level, which explores the beautiful Borrowdale Valley.
The walk begins by taking the bus from Keswick Bus Station to Rosthwaite, in the Borrowdale Valley, and walking back to Keswick, following the River Derwent and the west side of Derwent Water.
Paths are generally good, but there are some sections which are stony and others that will be muddy in poor weather.
Grade 3 walks may include some moderate ascents and descents. The path surface might be earth, grass or stone and – while generally firm – it will have some loose or uneven sections, or be soft underfoot after rain. You will also encounter steps, gates or stiles and narrow sections. Most of our grade 3 walks are suitable for families.
Participants will need to dress appropriately for the terrain and weather. Weather permitting, we will be stopping for a short break on route, so please bring refreshments.
