The trail takes you through some of the most beautiful and varied landscapes in the Lake District, including rolling hills, forests, and of course, Ullswater itself. Along the way, you'll pass through charming villages and hamlets, and have the opportunity to visit popular attractions such as Aira Force waterfall and Rydal Mount, the former home of William Wordsworth.
