We had a short walk from bustling Bowness today up to the fell directly behind our back door, Brant Fell. Surprisingly there was no one else up there but this is really a great little walk with a fine view along Windermere even on a day like today when it didn't look set to be clear.

A clue to where we are going heading along the street of the same name.

Hidden amongst the gardens is a footpath to Post Knott.

We've made it through the woods and it has stopped raining on Post Knott. Casper and Connie are both showing off their StridingEdge wristbands as well!
