3. Fairfield Horseshoe

Reviewed By RobbieBStockport
Like all Lakeland walks, one not to be underestimated even in good weather conditions. The path is easy to follow and usually a walker will have the company of many others enjoying the fells. The only steep ascent/descent depending on whether the walk is done clockwise or anti-clockwise overlooks Rydal Hall but in all other respects it is not a serious physical challenge for serious walkers. Whether a hiker would agree having experienced driving rain, low cloud, high winds and limited visibility especially when negotiating Fairfield itself is another matter!
