Walney Island

Walked on 28/03/2005

Weather: Overcast, warm with some sunny spells, 13oC.

Golden sands, mountain views, far from the madding crowds….sounds idyllic and it was on this remote northern tip of Walney Island, just off Barrow-in-Furness where we ventured for a relaxed family outing.

Across the golden sands with the tide advancing. There are great views to Black Combe across Duddon Sands.

The view. On a clearer day, all the western fells are in view from here including the Scafells and Coniston.
