Nicola guided us very well, she had great local knowledge, and was marvelous when one of our team hurt their ankle and we had to make our way down slowly in very windy/rainy conditions, always felt she was in total control

Red Deer hikes
Tailored day from £150
Had a 2 day group guided deer rutting experience which was well organised. Ferry crossing, packed breakfast or lunch and experienced guide who knew where to take us for the best chance of seeing and heating the deer. Great value for a lifetime memory. Would recommend!

Red Deer walks
Observe the famous Martindale Red Deer Rutting season. The bellows of the Red Deer Stags echo around the valleys to the east of Ullswater, Boredale, Martindale, Bannerdale and Fusedale. Dawn and dusk they are in full voice and throughout the daytime in the height of rutting season. The stags can be heard and seen from early October to mid November.

Helvellyn ascending via Swirral, the easiest of the 2 edges. Englands 3rd highest mountain gives 360' panoramic views on a clear day. 12km & 950m ascent.
