The Eden Way

The Eden Way is an 80 mile (129km) route which follows the River Eden from from sea to source through the Eden Valley.   It visits Norman castles and follows in the footsteps of the Roman legions and explores the legacy of notable figures including Lady Anne Clifford and William Mounsey. 

The walk starts at Solway Firth, seeking out the River Eden as it meets the sea.  It then follows the river through Carlisle, Armathwaite, Kirkoswald, Langwathby, Appleby, Warcop and Kirkby Stephen.  It finishes on Black Fell moss on the Mallerstang Edge.

More information on The Eden Way is available on the Long Distance Walkers Association website.
