Synopsis
LAKELAND BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023 - THE BILL ROLLINSON PRIZE FOR LANDSCAPE & TRADITION RUNNER UP
Join travel writer Tom Chesshyre for a Lakeland adventure like no other. Explore towering mountains, wide-open valleys and magnificent lakes - stopping off at a cosy inn or two along the way - on a 379-mile hike around the Lake District
From Penrith and back, via Keswick, Cockermouth, Coniston, Grasmere and Windermere, plus many places in between, Tom Chesshyre puts on his walking boots and sets forth in a "big wobbly circle" around the Lakes, drawn onwards by the dramatic scenery that attracts more than 19 million visitors each year.
Across landscape that so inspired the Romantic poets, he takes in remote parts of the parkland that many tourists miss - enjoying encounters aplenty with farmers, fell runners and fellow hikers, while staying in shepherds' huts, bothies and old climbers' hotels along the way, and even going for a (chilly) dip in Derwentwater.
This is the Lake District seen from its walking paths - with just a backpack, an open mind... and a spring in the step.

Condition: Aceptable. : Acompaña al escritor de viajes Tom Chesshyre en una aventura por Lakeland sin igual. Explora imponentes montañas, amplios valles y magníficos lagos, deteniéndote en alguna que otra acogedora posada por el camino, en una caminata de 379 millas alrededor del Lake District. Desde Penrith y de vuelta, pasando por Keswick, Cockermouth, Coniston, Grasmere y Windermere, además de muchos lugares intermedios, Tom Chesshyre se pone las botas de caminar y se aventura en un "gran círculo tambaleante" alrededor de los lagos, atraído por el espectacular paisaje que atrae a más de 19 millones de visitantes cada año. A través de un paisaje que tanto inspiró a los poetas románticos, recorre partes remotas del parque que muchos turistas se pierden, disfrutando de encuentros con granjeros, corredores de montaña y compañeros excursionistas, mientras se aloja en cabañas de pastores, bothies y antiguos hoteles de escaladores por el camino, e incluso se da un (frío) chapuzón en Derwentwater. Este es el Lake District visto desde sus senderos, con sólo una mochila, una mente abierta y un resorte en el paso.
