Dodd Wood and Bassenthwaite Walk

Rob, Brock and I had a beautiful walk in The Lake District this morning.

The walk was number 4 from the book "Pathfinder Guide No 13: Lake District Walks" ISBN 0-7117-0463-5. It is around three miles long, and takes in woodland, fields, farm tracks and a small amount of road walking. The woodland part is a bit steep in places, but otherwise it is a fairly flat walk. You can also visit the stately home: Mirehouse when it is open during the summer season.

We drove back into Keswick afterwards and had a tasty jacket potato and salad for lunch at Abraham's Cafe.
