Levens to Killington lake
13.5miles 2000ft
Leaving Levens village heading for Levens Hall....
....crossing the A 590 to Barrow
....arriving at Levens Hall which has the reputation of having the best display of Topiary in the country.
Looking back to Levens bridge as I walked into the deer park....
There were plenty of deer around in the early morning
I then followed the river Kent towards Natland village
Crossing the river Kent....
....followed by the Lancaster canal which from Hincaster to Kendal is completely without water
Leaving the canal behind to walk into Natland....
....before climbing 'The Helm' which overlooks the outskirts of Kendal in the distance and....
....Natland below
....arriving at the trig point 607ft
Crossing the ridge before turning east to follow paths and country lanes through.....
....rolling hills....
....with views to the lake district fells....
....before climbing to another trig point which though unnamed has a height of 1096ft....
....affording views down to my destination of killington lake
Zooming in on the boating centre across the lake...
descending past a huge quarry....
....and crossing the M6 at junction 37
Walking down to the lake side....
....after meeting my lift back to Levens for my car.
Another lovely day's walking in near perfect weather.
4 days walking completed has now brought me into the Yorkshire dales where my next stop will be the village of Dent
