Ambleside Yoga Hiking Weekend

A weekend of Yoga and Hiking based at Ambleside Hostel. 

Perfectly located on the shore of Lake Windermere we started and finished each day with an hours yoga session, with a hike in between to explore the best scenery in the area.



Saturdays Hike went through Ambleside and then up to Rydal, where we explored the grounds of Rydal Hall and the waterfall. 



Crossing the bridge we then headed round Rydal water.



Then up to the caves and on to Loughrigg Terrace and Grasmere for lunch.


On the return we followed the coffin route, via White Moss back to Rydal.



White Moss proved to be a popular view point with Nick doing some star jumps.



And Jean and Jean, doing some posing.



At Rydal we then followed the river Rothay passed the stepping stones back to the Hostel.



On Sunday we made our way up to Lilly Tarn....


.... and Todd Crag.

With great views down Windermere. 

Then continued up to the summit of Loughrigg Fell.

before finally heading down to loughrigg Tarn and the waterfall at Skelwith Force.

After the yoga we finished the weekend with plenty of tea and Yen's home-made cake beside the lakeshore.

A great weekend with a wonderful group of people.
