Walk Description
We start the walk by walking across the racecourse and then on well marked paths through fields down to Cark and then on to Holker. From Holker we start the ascent to Howbarrow. It’s a moderate ascent but the path can be slippery. From Howbarrow we have amazing views across the Lakeland Fells. We then return through the woods back to Cartmel village.
