Walk
1. Head into the entrance of Rydal Hall. Pass by the tea room on your left and cross over a bridge. Follow the path out of Rydal Hall, heading southwards.
2. Follow the path until you reach a path to your left. Take this path as it weaves left, right, left, right in quick succession. At the fork, take the right path and through the gap in the boundary. Turn immediately left and follow on the path as it heads north. When you reach another fork in the path, take the left option. After 1km, you will reach the further point of the walk.
3. Turn around here to have a fantastic sight of Lake Windermere. When you are ready, descend back in the direction you came. Follow the paths downhill and back towards Rydal Hall and the start point of the walk.
