The Elterwater Waterfall Walk plus Lingmoor Fell

A walk with Angie and Al, Jake and Veronika while staying at the cottage.

Route: From the Elterwater car park, the Cumbria Way path to Skelwith Force and over the new footbridge. Back along woodland footpaths to Colwith Force and then on to Little Langdale taking Jam Street to the Three Shires pub. Leaving the others to carry on directly, the zig-zag path up the side of Lingmoor Fell and along to the summit. Then retracing the route until the northwards path back down to the quarry and then back to the start.

Conditions: Drizzle and low cloud but surprisingly warm. Rain on Lingmoor Fell.

Pub: The Three Shires for Ennerdale Black Sail Bitter and Hawkshead Red (and The Outgate for Robinsons Dizzy Blonde on the drive back!)
