Green Graded 1-3

Green-graded walking holidays are suitable for active travellers who are reasonably fit and enjoy moderate hikes. We walk at a comfortable pace, and you can expect to be out for 5-6 hours a day. The terrain will be mostly good paths and hill trails but these can still be muddy and rough in places. Some hikes may involve an ascent up to a max of approx 1,500 feet / 450m. Distances will be typically 8-10km. Daily hike details are available in the itinerary.

Your Wilderness England Guide will meet you at Oxenholme Railway Station at 10:30am on Day 1 of your trip. On the final day, the trip will finish at Oxenholme Railway Station at 4:00pm.

Oxenholme is a small rural station, but it’s an important junction on the West Coast Main Line and trains frequently run to London, Manchester, Glasgow, and Edinburgh.

There is the possibility of being picked up and dropped off in the market town of Kendal, which is approximately 10 minutes from Oxenholme. Please let our friendly sales team know if you’d like to do this, and they will confirm the timings and location.
