20 miles • circular walk • walk around the whole lake

Experience Ullswater from every angle — close to the water, through woodland, beneath the fells and along the quieter eastern shore. Walk the full circuit, choose a shorter section, or link footpaths with boats and buses.

14-21 miles • linear or circular walk • literary landscapes and mountain paths

Walk from Ullswater to Ambleside through landscapes connected with William and Dorothy Wordsworth — over Grisedale’s mountain pass, down to Grasmere and Dove Cottage, then on by Rydal and the old coffin route.
