Elterwater

Walked on 02/11/2008

Skelwith Bridge to Elterwater and back.

This is a great low level walk with beautiful scenery on a day such as this with blue skies and bright sunshine, which was just a little different to my last walk up to the Old Man! The flat path is easy enough for all to walk (including Angus!) and is the perfect way to spend a Sunday morning.

A lovely sunny start to the walk on the path from Skelwith Bridge.

Heading for Elter Water.

Lingmoor Fell and the Langdale Pikes across Elter Water. If only those swans would come a bit closer, it would make a good photo.

Lots of colourful trees on this walk.

Reflections in Great Langdale Beck.

The weather was a bit different to the floods of a week ago. The force of the water was evident along this path with the wall and fence destroyed by the beck which is out of shot just to the right in this photo.

Loughrigg Fell.

ngus, Connie and Casper. I think this shot is worthy of a caption with Angus staring incredulously at the leaf on Casper's snout!

On the way back the swans have come a bit closer.

Simply stunning views today.

Everyone gets in this photo!

On the way back the light seems even better...

...and the colours are just fabulous.

Another beautiful scene.

All these two are interested in though is getting in for a swim.

A riot of colour in the sunshine.
