This third guidebook in the Short Walks in Lakeland series covers the west of the English Lake District – Duddon Valley and the Coast, Eskdale, Wasdale, Ennerdale, Lorton Vale, Buttermere and the north-west lakes. 50 routes between 4 and 8 miles for half- or full-day walks, mainly in lower fells and valleys, but grabbing the occasional peak.

Seasons

Year round, but be prepared under winter conditions for things to be much tougher.

Centres

Access to the West Lakes is through either Keswick in the north or through the South Lakes (or through Wrynose and Hardknott passes).

Difficulty

Half- to full-day walks, mainly in lower fells and valleys, plus worthwhile summits. Easier routes than the high fells.

Must See

Wild Wasdale, remote Ennerdale, high ridges around Buttermere, plus less-known and quieter walks down to the coast near St Bees and Ravenglass.
