Wollwasser
Leaving Glenridding, we follow Ullswater’s shoreline. Stretching nine miles through a glacial valley, it is often regarded as the most picturesque lake in England.
As we travel along its western edge, the slopes of Helvellyn and Place Fell rise steeply above the water, framing ever-changing reflections that shift with light and weather.

Steinkreis von Castlerigg
From Ullswater, the route carries us west to Castlerigg Stone Circle, one of Britain’s most striking Neolithic monuments, estimated to be over 5,000 years old.
The circle’s 38 standing stones sit on a high plateau surrounded by uninterrupted mountain views, including Blencathra, Skiddaw, and Helvellyn. Its dramatic setting makes it one of the most photogenic prehistoric sites in the country. We pause here to take in both the history and the landscape.

Thirlmere
Continuing south, we travel alongside Thirlmere, a long and narrow reservoir set within a deep valley.
Originally two separate lakes before being dammed in the 19th century, Thirlmere now blends seamlessly into its surroundings. Dense forest lines the water, while Helvellyn rises prominently above, offering a striking contrast between water, woodland, and mountain.

Nestled between wooded slopes and rocky outcrops, it was a favourite retreat of William Wordsworth. The water’s surface often mirrors the surrounding fells, offering a quiet and reflective interlude as we continue south.
