There is a private Coach every week from Barrow, calling at Dalton, Ulverston & other points if required.
Departs Barrow 08:30 or 09:00 depending on destination.
Choice of three walks for different capabilities:
A Party – Challenging walks over several higher mountain peaks, typically 10 to 16 miles with ascents of 3000 to 5000 feet.
B Party – Moderate walks over some high mountain peaks, typically 8 to 14 miles with total ascents of 2000 to 3500 feet.
C Party – Typically 7 to 10 miles over lower mountains slopes with total ascents generally less than 1200 feet.
Distances are less in winter due to shorter daylight hours.
