Time to Relax

If you grew up reading Arthur Ransome then you will love this walk. These woodlands near the shore of Coniston Water inspired Arthur Ransome to write Picts and Martys. Remember "Mount Kanchenjunga" you will get a view from it on this very walk! (.. if you have not read the book, Mount Kanchenjunga being The Old Man Of Coniston). This walk is approximately one and a half miles long and will take around one hour. Follow the purple waymarking signs. This circular walk starts from the Machell Coppice Car Park. From Coniston follow the small road south along the east side of Coniston Water. You will find the car park on the left about half way down the lake.
