Guided walks in the Lake District I’m Jamie, owner of Inspirit Walking. Here is a little about me and what I do at Inspirit Walking!

I have always had a love for the outdoors and walking. In 2018 I moved to the Lake District to indulge this passion and it has only grown since. Guided walks are a great way to share my love and passion for the Lake District, walking, and the outdoors in general. I have always loved sharing knowledge, taking friends and family for walks, showing people these wonderful places, advising on routes when speaking to visitors, and constantly learning more about the place I now call home. I run the business myself and will be your sole point of contact from initial enquiries and booking, right through to being your guide on the day, so I like to think it is a very personal experience. I know for many people having a great walking experience in the Lake District is not all that easy. I aim to make that experience incredibly accessible, enjoyable and bridge the gap that exists for a variety of reasons between the idea of doing it and making it a reality. Along with simply guiding the walk, I want to help inspire, educate and inflame. Each walk is different, but along the way there’ll be chats and opportunities to learn about all sorts – plants, animals, Lake District culture, geology, history, random facts and much more! The walks are relaxed, fun, informative and not overly strenuous. Currently my guided walks are focussed around some of the many stunning areas that don’t require hours walking up mountains. Yes I love the fells as much as the next person, but I also truly believe there are many areas of the Lake District that don’t get as much attention, especially in terms of guided walks to book on. Not everybody is either able to or wants to hike for 8 hours up steep slopes, and my walks are more accessible for a wider range of clients. Come with me and let me show you what the Lake District has to offer at a lower level – rivers, lakes, waterfalls, farms, fields, flowers, woods, pubs, caves, birds, trees, rocks and everything in between! I love sharing my passion about walking and the Lake District and am always happy to have a chat. So please get in touch if you have any questions, and I will try my best to help and advise, even if you don’t end up booking on one of my walks! �

Day 2 of Ullswater walking holiday. Weather was much better and so order of the day was the Fusedale Round; 5 Wainwrights ⛰️ with fabulous views of Ullswater 😍 We also got to listen to and spot the red deer in the rut, part of the reason for heading to this part of the lakes! 🦌
*Disclaimer* - this post is catching up on sharing photos from adventures a couple of weeks ago, NOT from the weekend just gone in the storms 😅 (if you want pictures from people walking the fells this weekend, check mountain rescue's posts 😉)

Day 1 of Ullswater walking holiday. Forecast was not kind, so we adjusted the original plan and used the conditions to our advantage!
After heavy rainfall a waterfall is always a good bet 🌊 (Aira Force), then timed our journey for the slightly better weather to bag a small Wainwright (Little Mell Fell) ⛰️. After that we followed part of the Ullswater way for some lovely Autumnal woods and views over the lake 🍂.
To top it off we saw a couple of red squirrels, always a great addition to a walk! 🐿
A fantastic day out showing the variety and flexibility of walking options when the weather doesn't allow for the higher fells 🥾

Great 3 day walking holiday hosting repeat guests Brenda and Nichola. We concentrated on the fells around Ullswater and Martindale to combine Wainwright bagging and deer watching! ⛰️🦌
