Walks around Sedbergh are ideal for one to two hours upto 1/2 day excursions for families, groups and individuals. The walks shown here each offer different interests such as river and nature walking, peace ful hamlets and easy fells and learning about the history and culture of the area. We can incorporate visits to the Quaker meeting house at Briggflats or heritage arts and crafts at Farfield Mill. Whilst the walks usually start from Sedbergh, this can be adjusted to start at your local accommodation if that is more convenient. Your guide will ensure you take the best route for your group, share knowledge and highlight points of interest as we proceed.

An ascent of Winder - 3 miles / 2 hours - Winder is Sedbergh's own Matterhorn, it is a real peak, although very much a non technical climb. Winder overlooks the town and provides numerous ways to see and experience the higher fells for a modest outlay of time and sweat.
