9th November 02 - Bigland Tarn

At least it has stopped raining today.
An 8-mile walk starting on the River Levens estuary at Greenodd along the Cumbria Coastal Way to Low Wood (close to Haverthwaite where the stream railway still runs to Lakeside). Then climbing up through the woods to Bigland Tarn and back via the old gunpowder works at Low Wood and along the old disused railway track to the start.
