Wray Castle to Ferry House Walk

Route Description for Wray Castle to Ferry House Walk

Walking the Wray Castle to Ferry House Trail is a popular activity for people in the Lake District that are looking for charming lakeside views and the chance to visit historical sites. The trail sets out from the grounds of Wray Castle, a Victorian-Era estate overlooking Windermere before working closer to the shores of the lake. From here, you will follow the trail south along the edge of the water and enjoy the picturesque views across the lake while popping in and out of the cover of the forest.
