🥾 Via the low route! Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk, Day 4: Grasmere to Patterdale

If you don’t have a head for heights and want to avoid Striding Edge then this is the route to take! Join me on my big adventure as I tackle leg 4 of Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk accompanied by husband Nick. This long distance hiking trail (c190 miles) reaches across the beautiful landscapes of Northern England. Starting from the cute village of St Bees in Cumbria to the stunning North Yorkshire coastline. In this video, I share our experiences on our Day 4 of the C2C trail, starting out in Grasmere, climbing up to Grisedale Pass (Hause) alongside Tongue Gill, then heading through the corridor of mountains to Patterdale - avoiding both high route options. This is another Lakeland classic and it's an unmissable hike across stunningly beautiful landscapes. Sharing the lessons we learned on this fourth leg of our C2C adventure, which we are completing over the summer months of 2026 rather than in one big go. If you fancy walking this Coast to Coast trail then this vlog could be very useful for you, especially if you are worried about your fitness, want to see the terrain or are scared of height like me 😳 Subscribe for the next legs on this stunning route. Planning: For this leg we stayed in Keswick, got the bus from Keswick to Grasmere and then returned to Keswick via bus from Patterdale.
