Grasmere brims with a variety of walks fit to embrace the beauty and magnitude of the Lakelands. Rambles range from those suitable for the entire family, including the five mile walk to Silver How, to the popular, yet more tricky summit of Helm Crag, known as Lion and Lamb. Whichever walk you choose, soak up the classic Cumbrian charm that presides over Grasmere village.

Always check the weather forecast, including conditions at higher altitudes, take sufficient food and water for your walk, wear appropriate footwear and clothing and let someone know where you are walking and when to expect your return.
