The views from the top of Catbells are stunning! We do a lot of walking and so this was an easy climb for us - it is meant to be family friendly but I can see how some may struggle. Either way the views from the top are stunning! And well worth it. It takes roughly an hour to get... More

Has a bit of everything, path, woods, lake and Hill climb up to Catbells. Great to just relax by the lake with a picnic and fun for families.

I'm not a seasoned climber or even walker so I found this walk quite difficult. It is very steep in parts and seems to go on forever! Take refreshments, maybe some boiled sweets, because you will need an energy boost! But, my goodness, the views are spectacular!

The title says it all fantastic walking and even tea served on the summit. Still trying to find Mrs Twiggy Winkle

This was one of the highlights of our trip. Definitely worth doing. Keep going - don't give up until you're on the top! The last section looks much scarier than it actually is. We met a lot of friendly encouraging walkers who helped us with the ascent. Make sure you descend over the top to enjoy the spectacular views of... More

The scenery in this part of the Lake District is wonderful. A great introductory walk, but can be busier than Victoria Station in the rush hour!

Lovely walk around the lower trail on Cat Bells and continued on around the lake for several miles and then back into Keswick.

Started at the portinscale end of the walk and its very steep to start until you reach the 1st peak then it levels out a bit. Once you get all the way to the top of Cat Bells its a great view and worth the effort.

We took the ferry from Keswick to the path up Catbells. Beautiful hike up, with a simple scramble to the peak. On the back end we went down the stone staircase, which would have be slightly easier going up. Lots of families and people of all ages - amazing fun and views.
