Route Description for Loughrigg Terrace Walk
While the Loughrigg Terrace Walk might only be a short adventure, the spectacular views across the picturesque Lake District landscape are more than enough to entice walkers of all ages to check out this fun trail. The route sets out from the car park and heads to the south to cross over the River Rothay before starting the gentle climb up the hillside in the direction of Loughrigg Fell.
