Coniston ‘B’ walk to Lake Coniston, Tranearth Beck, Scar Head Lane : 8 miles, max elevation 1048 ft./319 m Led by John
March’s ‘B’ walk with John is an 8 mile circular walk across lakeshore paths, rugged moors and stoney fell tracks, with spectacular views.
From Coniston we join Lake Road walking along the lake shore with great views of Coniston fells and Coniston water. We walk past Coniston Hall then through Park Coppice Camp Site and onto Scar Head Lane where we start walking up to Tranearth, where we will enjoy our lunch break besides Tranearth Beck.
We then walk past the slate mines and past a quarry with a fine waterfall and up to Walna Scar Road (an Old Roman Path).
We continue along this path with fantastic views back to Coniston.
