Out and back walk along the C2C route setting off from Skills 4 U Cleator Moor, parking is available in the small tarmacked car park.  We join the track from Phoenix Bridge and follow the route of the old Railways, which were built in the 1850’s to carry the coal and iron ore from the mines and quarries that were once very active in this area.   The walk takes you up towards Parkside and has breath-taking views of Ennerdale Valley.  There is a small section which is lined with beautiful trees and has a very peaceful feel allowing you to connect with the surroundings and nature.  Along the route there are a number of metal sculptures designed by the children from local primary schools.  Overall this is a very pleasant route which is suitable for all abilities, seating areas are available along the way for rest stops if required.

Monthly walks around Cleator Moor cycle path. These walks will be for all ages and abilities. Wheelchair, pushchair users welcome!  The walks will be slow paced and will encourage people to notice and appreciate the nature around them. The walks will start and end at St Johns Church rooms, tea, coffee and cake will be available free of charge at the end of the walk.

 

This walk starts at St Bees Station and then proceeds across the B5345 in a north easterly direction, along Wood Lane past St Bees Public School  on to the public right of way no 422009  to Abbey Wood.  The path is flat but sometimes muddy underfoot. If the weather is good and people are able, we can walk into the wood. It is accessible to prams, wheelchairs and mobility scooters if we have prior notice. Sometimes there is livestock in the fields adjacent to the path. Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times. Birdwatchers will see and hear some interesting birds.  For those who want a cup of coffee – or even lunch at the end of the walk we usually head up to the Manor Hotel in St Bees.

St Bees Beach Walk starts at St Bees station and then proceeds  along the B5435 road to the Church. We walk through the Sleeping Child Garden in the Church Grounds and admire the  sculptures. Then we walk through the well tended grave yard to the entrance to Priory Paddock – a wild life garden. Then we turn right on to the  Public Footpath 423001 ( the ‘Dandy Walk’). We walk along the Dandy Walk to the junction of Beach Road and Abbey Road. At this point, depending on the group, we can proceed straight to the Beach and the Beach Park, or alternatively walk along Peck Mill  road  to the England Coast path and then take the path to the cliff top and then walk down hill to the Beach Park and Hartley’s Beach Café, where we usually stop for coffee and possible lunch.

A beautiful gentle walk along the Whitehaven costal path.

This walk starts at Whitehaven Sports Centre and takes in the lovely Whitehaven Harbour, up a few steps and onto the costal path where we will walk about 1 mile along the tops and then back down into Whitehaven Town Centre, finishing at the United Reform Church at approximately 11am where we have partnered with the local social prescribing team and you will be given a free lunch and hot drinks (If you would like).

We enjoy a ramble along the inner harbour walls and along the coastal path towards the locally named “whitey rock”. We’ll enjoy the sounds of the waves washing up on the beach, the sounds of seagulls and the sights of boats gently swaying in the marina. With plenty of opportunity to break the walk into sections, this walk is gentle, social and friendly.
