Cumbria Way

A well-loved 70 mile route through the heart of the Lake District National Park, linking the two historic Cumbrian towns of Ulverston and Carlisle.

The route cuts through classic Lakeland country via Langdale, Borrowdale, Coniston, Derwent Water and Caldbeck with plenty of scope for high-level detours.

There are a few sections of high, exposed ground but mainly the route keeps to the valleys, providing an excellent introduction to the area.
