Ling Fell Walk Description
With picturesque Lake District views and fairly easy terrain, the Ling Fell Walk is a great option for beginner walkers and families travelling with kids. The trail sets out from the side of the road and climbs uphill along the rugged terrain of the moor to access the summit viewpoint at the top of Ling Fell. Take some time to appreciate the majestic views that sweep across Lakeland before continuing along the loop to arrive back at the trailhead in the valley below. As mentioned, this route can be extended by walking the trails leading up to the summit of Sale Fell to the northeast.
