Duddon Valley Ramble

Walked on 29/08/2005

Duddon Valley ramble

Weather: Sunny. 17°C.

We had a walk around Seathwaite and Wallowbarrow in the Duddon Valley today, one of the loveliest and quietest parts of the Lake District. It was a lovely late summer day today; perfect for a Bank Holiday Monday.
