The routes are mainly off-road, with easily passed stiles and avoiding grazing live-stock wherever possible, or warning where you might need to put your dog on a lead.

 

There are stunning lakeside walks by Tarn Hows, Elterwater and Rydal Water; scenic woodland walks in Whinlatter and exploring Grizedale Forest with its many trails and sculptures to discover; climbing one of Wainwright's legendary peaks at Dodd Fell; and exploring castles at Kendal and Sizergh.

 

There is also information on warm and welcoming pubs and cafes where you and your dog can stop for refreshments, as well as contact details for the nearest vets.
