We have a no-rush policy so there's no need to worry if you feel you might slow everyone down.

Guided Walks
Whether you're looking to bag a few Wainwrights or just want to go somewhere a little different, we have something for you. Whether it's valley walks to mid-height fells, to the Northern Lakeland giants, we have plenty to choose from..
Again there's no rushing and no named scrambles so it's ideal for people who love hiking but don't like scrambling/sheer drops, or for those who worry they might hold everyone up. Our average walk length is around 6-8 miles and the group ratio never exceeds 1:6. We are dog friendly but also love walks without dogs!
​
Just £50 per person, max 6 in a group
​​​​
​
We don't do Striding Edge, Sharp Edge, Jack's Rake, Scafell Pike or Scafell, sorry
​​
Over 18's only - Dogs to be kept on leads please.
