TWIXMAS Hiking in The Lake District - 27 Dec
27-29 December 2024
*TWIXMAS: That lull between Christmas and New Year where we are stuck in a time warp. Our routine is disrupted and the to do list is in limbo. What do we do?*
The Norwegians have a word for this: "Romjul". It's a time to to reflect on the past year and a time to take long walks...
Let's escape to the picturesque Lake District for a weekend of gentle hikes and serene beauty!
Join us as we explore the charming landscapes around Windermere and Langdale, perfect for those looking to unwind and enjoy the natural wonders of this iconic region at a leisurely pace.
As with all City Mountaineering trips, we’ll get you off the busy tourist trails and head instead to the quieter parts of the National Park, drawing on our local knowledge and years of experience to provide a truly unique adventure you’ll never forget.
Relaxation is the name of the game on this weekend and, whilst we’ll still be hiking up to summits, the aim of this trip is to enjoy, not endure! And, of course, we’ll make sure there’s a pub at the end of the hike too!
This is an ideal weekend for a beginner hiker who wants their first taste of the hills or for the seasoned mountaineer just wanting to enjoy being in the moment in one of the most beautiful parts of the UK.
As always, we’ll sort out the travel, accommodation and guided hiking so just meet in London and leave the rest to us.
From London to the Lake District and back in a weekend!
Friday (from 3pm) - Board the train in London and enjoy the relaxing journey to The Lake District National Park, where you will be met at the train station and transferred to your accommodation.
Saturday - A day of hiking the lesser-trodden areas of the Eastern Fells followed by dinner in a traditional local pub in the evening (or a barbecue dinner if pubs are closed)
Sunday - A second day of hiking, before being transferred to the train station for a return back to London (for 9pm)
