This all-day adventure captures the full drama and beauty of the northern Lake District. From lush gardens to wild passes, ancient stones to thundering falls, it's a journey that tells the story of the Lakes in every turn.

We begin with a visit to Holehird Gardens, where cultivated blooms and sweeping vistas offer a peaceful start. Then a brief stop at Holbeck Lane Viewpoint and a drive through Troutbeck Village sets the stage for our mountain ascent.

Climb the legendary Kirkstone Pass and head toward the powerful cascade of Aira Force Waterfall, the tallest and most famous in the Lakes, where the walk through ancient woods adds to the magic.

Our next highlight is the ancient Castlerigg Stone Circle, standing proud on a hilltop, encircled by mountains, as it has for over 4,000 years.

In Keswick, enjoy lunch and a relaxed stroll around the charming market town.

We continue to Ashness Bridge and Surprise View, where the panorama across Derwentwater is simply breathtaking.

Then on to Honister Slate Mine for a glimpse into England's last working slate operation before we descend through Honister Pass, a ribbon of road through sheer and wild beauty.

Stop at Buttermere, where lake and mountain blend in perfect harmony, followed by Moss Force Waterfall, cascading from the fells in a long, silvery stream.

Next, take in the sights from Whinlatter Viewpoint, then pass Thirlmere Reservoir, and cross Dunmail Raise, said to be the burial ground of an ancient king.

We end with gentle views over Grasmere and Rydal Water, Wordsworth's sacred places, before returning home from a day of wonder.
