Kendal to Mabbin Hall Sunday stroll

A 9km Sunday walk to retrieve a car left after (almost) watching, with Simon and Sally, the finale of Nashville Season 3 and making a small impact on a feast of southern-style food and drink!

Route: across the strawberry fields and through Natland to pick up the path towards Cracalt House and hence south to join the route of the old canal, clear in parts and in others a narrow trod across undulating fields. Across the viaduct in Sedgwick and by fields to the road bridge over the A591. Then along the Avenue through Levens Deer Park to Levens Bridge. After 50m on the road, taking a tarmac track up hill to pick up a lateral path and thence to a narrow green lane to Mabbin Hall and the car.

Conditions: a mild autumnal day with some watery sunshine.

Pub: the Hare and Hounds, Levens for Eden Brewery, Rocket and Cumbrian Legendary Ales, Lakeland Gold.
