A beautiful day's walk in the central Lake District. We'll be heading into the Great Langdale valley to get some great up close views of the famous Langdale Pikes. We'll climb out of Elterwater to enjoy the woodland through Baysbrown Woods and follow the Cumbria Way on a lovely track to the base of Stickle Ghyll, where we can stop for a picnic lunch. From there, easy walking brings us back through Chapel Stile and past the idyllic Great Langdale Beck to return to Elterwater.
