Guided Walks

We can arrange a Guided Walk for your staff, business clients and other organisations.

Walking and talking is one of the easiest ways to get to know each other.

A walk in a healthy environment is invigorating and beneficial for everyone.

These walks are tailored to suit the requirements of your organisation. They can be moderate or strenuous mountain walks, or easier picturesque walks through the hills and valleys.

The advantages of these walks to your organisation:-

    • Helps business colleagues bond in a non work environment
    • Helps promote better links with colleagues from other departments
    • Provides a stress free day away from the work environment
    • Helps clear minds of “day to day clutter”
    • Improves morale; staff will feel valued, which will help with staff retention
    • Improves fitness, which can lead to an improved performance

Please contact us with your requirements and we will be delighted to provide a quote.

Treasure Hunts

An alternative option to a Guided Walk could be to try a Lake District Treasure Hunt.

We design and organise team based Treasure Hunts for any size corporate group.

Our Treasure Hunts are an entertaining way to find out a bit more about The Lake District. It is amazing how much you walk past without noticing, even when you think you know a place really well. Our Treasure Hunts will highlight hidden gems, and in searching for clues you will almost certainly discover other things you have never noticed before.

These Treasure Hunts can be either a town trail based at one of the lovely Lake District villages or towns, or a low level walk through the Lake District countryside. They can be half day or full day with an option to stop at one of the local pubs for lunch.

We can also design and organise a car treasure hunt around beautiful parts of The Lake District.

Please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your full requirements, and we will be delighted to provide you with a quote.

General Walks Information

The terrain in the Lake District is generally tougher than in many parts of the country, and some footpaths can be steep and rocky. Grading of walks can give some indication of the degree of difficulty, but some people may find even the easy walks are too much. After rain some footpaths will become waterlogged, and on steeper ground paths can be quite slippery, so more care is required. If unsure about whether a walk would be suitable on a particular day, please contact us.

Grading of Walks

Easy - generally good paths, no steep climbs or descents. Possibly some stiles. Not remote.

Moderate - mainly reasonable paths, but some on steeper ground. Possible small streams to cross. No summits climbed above 2,000 feet (615 metres).

Strenuous - mainly on paths, but some may be steep, rough or stony. Could climb to summits above 2,000 feet (615 metres).
