Lovely walk do not go down the lane with the gate. This was an error. Starts from car park up to st Johns church and down the other side of the valley

Awesome track recently made into a dirt highway some amazing views still and one if the best tracks in the lakes. Good camp spot for 5-10 on the west side quarry bit.
Walk starts at Threlkeld car park. The car park is small and there’s an honesty box there, being early wins a space. The route heads up Doddick Fell then across to Sharp Edge. The path is easy to follow even in poor weat...
Very nice and scenic walk. Rolling hills and well marked out. Great views throughout. Quite a mix of hills, first and water. Well recommended on a more dry and sunny time.

Lovely run over the fantastic Sharp edge. Bit wet and quite windy today but was sheltered enough apart from the top.
Difficult start with a steep uphill walk in high temperatures. Sometimes searching for the trail. But a great view on top. Downhill was a walk in the park.
Very easy path on paved road. Great sceneries over the lake and mountains. The track coil close the loop of the lake but it was closed short after the point I reached.
Very wet so sharp edge was very tricky - was roped up so confidence got us through it. Long walk around, just wanted to extend the day but extensive cloud ruined the views!
Tough with 14kg on back as training for GR20! Great walk though. Dry weather and little wind so Sharp Edge quite manageable. Fabulous views.
Went up Blencathra in the cloud. Came down and strolled into Keswick for dinner then back to the campsite.
Blencathra via sharps edge, short but enjoyable, think I’m ready to do grade 2 scrambles as that didn’t phase me today.
Takes in three Wainwrights: Bannerdale Crags, Mungrisdale Common and Bowscale Fell. Add in Souther Fell if your legs allow.
Scales to Keswick via Blencathra and the Threlkeld railway path. This is the easiest east to west route over Blencathra, ascending via Mousthwaite Comb.
From Blencathra centre, to Blencathra, down to Scales, where we had a pint, and then a walk back to Threlkeld. Tough but so enjoyable!

Threlkeld - Keswick. Family friendly flat walk which can be undertaken in either direction. Re opened in 2022 after flood damage, it is ideal for young kids who want to walk, scooter or cycle. Tarmacked the full route.

Salgo desde un aparcamiento junto a la carretera y cercana al pueblo de Threlkeld. Será el primer scramble que hago en Reino Unido así que estoy muy ilusionado. Subo poco a poco y progresivamente hasta acercarme a un be...
