Hello there,
There won’t be any walks this weekend but, next weekend, Kate will be leading a walk on Sunday 14th September from Grasmere to Steel Fell and back. This a short walk with a moderate ascent but a good Sunday stroll to build up an appetite for Sunday lunch 🙂
Below are the details:
Meet time: 9.00am
Start time: 9.15am
Estimated finish time: 2.30pm (including optional pub lunch)
Distance: About 2.8 miles (4.5 kilometres)
Ascent: About 1,000 feet (305 metres)
Ramblers walk grading: C+ (Moderate – short, with a steep climb and some rough ground)
Start point: Traveller’s Rest pub, A591, Grasmere. Postcode: LA22 9RR
Car parking: Please park at the Traveller’s Rest. We’ll be asking their kind permission to use their car park when we book lunch, so please car share where possible to help keep space available for other customers. Alternatively, there’s a layby approximately 0.4 miles north on the A591 just before Dunmail Raise – it’s free and a short walk down to the pub.
And the full walk description can be found in the link below:

There be further walks with a linear walk of Helvellyn on Saturday 20th September going from Grasmere to Thirlmere, and then a more moderate hike around the two amazing hills of Harter Fell and Hard Knott Fell. Throughout each month there will be at least a few walks of varying types and in areas all around the Lake District and a bit further beyond.
Autumn has arrived but the hike must go on!
Kind regards,
Miles Saunders-Priem
