Highlights of this walk

  • views of Coniston Water and Coniston Old Man
  • mixed woodland scenes
  • Tarn Hows - a beauty spot that deserves the title
Tarn Hows is a justifiably popular beauty spot and, not surprisingly, attracts a lot of visitors. This walk enables you to enjoy relative solitude before and after you visit to this delightful lake.

Safety and Difficulty

This 5-mile walk involves some inclines but is never difficult and mostly easy. (Add extra distance if you walk round the Tarn).
