Description
An alternative to CONAMB(one), and very similar to the Coniston to Ambleside section of CONWIN(one). 3K longer than CONAMB(one) and with slightly more climb. The route does however have the benefit of a range of refreshment opportunities at Hawkshead and at Outgate. Another pleasant route between these two Lake District towns, For the most part easy to navigate. Care is needed through the northen section of Grizedale forest as it follows mostly unsigned forest tracks. Also the section between Clappersgate and Ambleside where the route follows tracks more easily seen on the ground rather than follow the indistinct lines of the right of way as shown on the map. An extremely pleasant and safe route

Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
