A midweek walk through the Langdale valley.

We started off with the intention of walking from Dungeon Ghyll but we left it a little late and the car parks were heaving.

We drove back to Elterwater, pictured above, and parked outside the village and did a 6 mile circuit that took us on a low level ramble around some of the Lake District’s most beautiful scenery.

The walk finished by taking us along the River Brathay down the side of Elterwater

The final part of the walk down a section of the Cumbrian Way was quite busy, in marked contrast to the walks we do from the lodge, but I suppose that with views like these and an easy path this was not surprising.
