Cat Bells and Maiden Moor Circular Walk

Route Description for Cat Bells and Maiden Moor Circular Walk

The Cat Bells and Maiden Moor Circular Walk is a popular excursion in the Lake District due to its scenic views and tough ridgeline terrain. The route will take you from the parking area at the side of the road on an uphill climb along a rugged ridge that offers sweeping views of Derwent Water. As you walk along the mountainous terrain, you will summit both Cat Bells and Maiden Moor before working your way down the steep slopes to the east. From here, it is a straightforward walk along the valley floor that will take you north toward the edge of the lake, traversing the foot of the ridge until you reach the car park where you started.
