About this walk

A rugged valley walk that follows the beck up into the wild amphitheatre of the Coppermines beneath Coniston Old Man, past disused mine workings and tumbling waterfalls. The stony track is a solid, well-drained route that suits fit dogs and delivers big mountain drama without the summit slog.
