The route map of our walk

The Fish Hotel, in Buttermere village, at the start of the walk

Looking along Buttermere towards Fleetwith Pike

Looking back across the meadows towards the village, with Whiteless Pike behind

It didn't take tim too long to find the lake

Another view of Whiteless Pike, this time from the outflow of the lake, the Crag Hill - Causey Pike ridge is the one on the right

Buttermere lake with Grasmoor, Whiteless Pike, Crag Hill and Sail behind

A view of High Snockrigg across Buttemere

The woods were full of these delightful Foxgloves

It was really pleasant walking through the shade of the trees along the lake shores

As once we reached the eastern end of the lake it was roasting in the direct sun

Fleetwith Pike and Buttermere, with the slopes of Dale Head on the left

Looking through the trees to the 'bothy' on the shores of Buttermere

Approaching Peggy's Bridge

A view along Warnscale Beck towards the lake from the bridge

One of my favourite views, Haystacks across the meadows from Peggy's Bridge

High Stile and Dodd from the NE corner of the lake

Looking back towards Haystacks and the Buttermere Pines

High Stile and Dodd again from Crag Wood

Tim splashing through the shallows, Sheena taking the drier route!

Looking down Buttermere towards the distant bulk of Mealbreak

The tunnel entrance at Hassness

And the view of Hen Comb and Mealbreak from the other end

Looking back to Haystacks

Grasmoor and Whiteless Pike from the fields just outside the village

High Snockrigg from the same spot

Buttermere village, with Mealbreak and Hen Comb behind, at the end of another delightful, but very hot and humid, walk
