What to expect
Over the two days, we'll cover two steady walks from Ambleside, sticking to low fells and valleys with good views and straightforward terrain. Expect a mix of quiet trails, woodland, and open ground, with some short climbs to stretch the legs.
You'll get a proper feel for the area in winter — bare trees, frozen ground, and the fells around Ambleside dusted with snow if we're lucky. Nothing rushed, just a solid couple of days out on the hill.
