Lake District Group Hike

Location 

Great Langdale, Cumbria

The intended route

This will be a 10km circular route and will include an ascent and descent of around 700 meters so a moderate level of fitness will be required. The walk will be at a relaxed pace with plenty of opportunity to stop for photos and short breaks.

Please be aware that the walk will include a mixture of terrain and landscapes with the potential for uneven ground, rough terrain, stiles, stream crossings, fields and hills, tracks and lanes; we may experience adverse weather conditions.

Part of the attraction of valley, hill and mountain walking is the challenge of tackling different terrains, landscapes and weather conditions. Every effort is made to minimise potential hazards; however, the very nature of hill and mountain walking involves a certain level of unavoidable risk of accident and/or injury. By taking part in this activity, you are aware of and accept these risks.

The walk leader reserves the right to vary the intended route from that set out above; this is most likely to be a weather dependent action and the walk leader will aim to keep the event as true to the booking as possible.

It is currently too early to know how the day will be regarding the weather, however… As we know, the Lakes has its own weather system, and we could see anything! Please ensure you are well equipped for all weathers. Some people will be aware of what to bring for a day in the hills but for those who are unsure I have included a kit list below.

For this event you will need:

• Walking boots or walking shoes suitable for all terrain

• Waterproof jacket and waterproof over trousers

• Warm clothing (base layer, insulating layer, spare layer in backpack)

• Suitable walking trousers/leggings - fast drying material NO JEANS

• Gloves, warm hat, sunglasses, sun hat, sun cream (you never know!)

• 20-30ltr day rucksack

• Head torch and spare batteries

• Flask and water bottle

• Packed lunch materials and snacks for the day
