About the book: Water always adds something special to a walk and Cumbria and the Lake District have many notable waterside landscapes to explore. The twenty circular walks in this book are all between 2 to 8 miles in length and include some of the most memorable scenery in England. Using this book as a guide, you can stroll by delightful stretches of the Cocker, Derwent, Great, Rothay, Esk and Leven rivers, and enjoy many beautiful lakes and reservoirs, set in stunning scenery, at such places as Derwentwater, Buttermere Lake, Wast Water, Elter Water and, of course, Lake Windermere. There is also the opportunity to enjoy the wonderful coastline and breathtaking views on walks at St Bees, Ravenglass and Haverigg. Each carefully described route includes information on how to get to the start, where to park and where to go for refreshments. For greater clarity, the route descriptions are divided into numbered paragraphs, which correspond with numbers on the accompanying sketch maps. There are also places of interest to visit along the way such as the beautiful Georgian market town of Cockermouth, birthplace of William Wordsworth; Dora’s Field at Rydal Water which the poet planted with daffodils in memory of his daughter; and Ravenglass, with its Roman bathhouse remains.
