Ullswater Walks & Hikes
From easy, low level, to challenging.
There's a trail for everyone
The Ullswater Way
The Ullswater Way, as well as giving you superb views of the lake itself, allows many options.
A stroll along the shore path from Patterdale to Silver Bay and back is very popular. Another option is to take the Steamer ( ferry ) to Howtown and walk back to Patterdale / Glenridding.
If you’re thinking of doing the whole thing, maybe check out the information here.
Helvellyn

The Glenridding Tourist Information Centre is an ideal place for advice.
They’re great for a chat about whether the above hike is for you and anyone with you.
