A Walk from Howtown to Glenridding on Ullswater

Todays walk was in the Lake District and we took the Ferry from Glenridding to Howtown and then walked the 7 miles back to Glenridding. The weather was glorious and the Ferry had a full load of passengers. This is Glenridding from the stern of the Ferry. 

The footpath round the lake was tough in places and you had to watch where you put your feet. This is the start of the walk just half a mile from the pier at Howtown.  

Half way round the lake we heard these rowers shouting out the timing for their row. We think they will be from the Outward Bound school on the lake and they were having a great time. 

The Ferry makes its way back along the lake heading for the furthest point at Pooley Bridge.

The final high point of the walk and Tom is in great spirits.
