Walk Photo 203406
Caption - West Wall Traverse start - The start of the West Wall Traverse is a narrow groove leading up at a gentle angle from a gap in the left wall of Lords Rake. Because of the rock parapet on the left of the path there is initially little exposure, even though we are over 300 feet up from the base of the cliffs.

Lake District
Walking in the Lake District National Park is amongst the best in the British Isles. The natural beauty has attracted many artists and writers through the centuries and today the same scenery provides the perfect backdrop to a wide variety of walks. The National Park is located wholly within Cumbria with Windermere, Ambleside and Keswick the main tourist towns. For many this is the finest area in England for walking with a wide variety of scenery. Even on the busiest weekends it is possible to get away from the crowds by carefully selecting one of the less-visited fells. More Information
