Lake District - A great walk from Kentmere up the valley to the reservoir on a glorious sunny day

A very popular Lake District walk from the Kentmere village up to the Reservoir but with a twist. Up the not track up the side of the valley towards the Reservoir and back down the track with a surprise visit to an old slate mine, which you often miss but often walk over! How the miners managed to get the slate stone out using horses and carts and down the valley is simply outstanding.#lakedistrictwalks

You missed the big deep cave to the east and the two names in the rock from the 1700s :)

Thank you for the tip. It is great that are still more places to explore in the splendid valley of Kentmere
