Ramblers Tyneside Group uses coaches to walk & explore from the Scottish Borders to the Yorkshire Dales & Moors, from the Lakes to the Northumberland & Durham coasts.
Pooley Bridge straddles the River Eamont at the head of Ullswater in the picturesque Eden Valley. The town's two wide main streets are lined with greystone houses and a number of teashops, all overlooking the lake.
The walking is fantastic and many tops are accessible: too many to list. There are big tops like Angle Tarn Pikes, Place Fell, and smaller ones such as Dunmallet with 300 feet of ascent needed to get a great view of Ullswater. Moor Divock on Heughscar Hill has ancient pre-historic stone circles: Wainwright said, “that long before the Romans came the ancient Britons had already found the place to their liking. So will modern Britons, especially those hovering on the verge of ancient.”
