Cumberland Way

Cumbria

129 km / 80 miles
The Way takes a meandering route from the Irish Sea across the historic county of Cumberland and the Lake District National Park to reach the former Westmorland boundary and the old market town of Appleby. It avoids the mountain summits and follows old tracks and footpaths, providing a safe route across the open fells, over passes and along lakesides. The Way visits Strands, Wast Water, Black Sail Pass, Buttermere, Keswick, Castlerigg stone circle, Aira Force, Brougham Castle and Cliburn. See Furness Way.
