Gravel Beach at Crummock Water Head

Highlight • Viewpoint

If cycling west to east, Komoot may ask you to loop around the headland to exit. My advice is instead to head back the way you entered (along the road) - I was informed, rightly so, that bikes were not technically permitted on the headland path since it wasn't a bridleway. It is *very* narrow and rideable surfaces disappear for large chunks.

As a keen hike-a-biker, I persevered with Komoot's suggested route, however it would have been much simpler and easier to have gone back and around. Please learn from my mistake, especially if weather conditions are miserable (as they were for me)!

Lanthwaite Woods and Crummock Water

Highlight • Trail

A nice section of woodland at the western end of Crummock Water. This is owned and managed by the National Trust. Plenty of trails through the woods and along the lake shore.

Crummock Water — Dam and Viewpoint

Highlight • Lake

At the point where the River Cocker meets Crummock Water is a classically picturesque view the Buttermere valley. A popular spot for skimming stones, there are few backgrounds as idyllic.

View of Crummock Water

Highlight • Viewpoint

Lovely place to enjoy the beach-side view - several seats too. Popular in the summer for alfresco dining and wild swimming - also a haven for red squirrels.

Highlight • Forest

As you stroll through the delightful Lanthwaite Wood, you are rewarded with fantastic views across the northern tip of Crummock Water, especially when Grasmoor End stands proudly in the background.

Limited space in the car park - best to get there early in the busy season?
