We are the Carlisle Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A fell walk with steady ascent and descent along well-defined paths passing over both River Gent and Old Water.
Starting from Jockey Shield we head NE to cross River Gelt for the first time. We then begin to ascend passing old mine workings and disused quarries before turning at Gairs and heading back southwards.
The route takes us down the west flank of Tornmonath Fell before we arrive at Old Water and cross the bridge. We drop down to the Water Works and cross Old Water again . We then cross over the River Gelt for the final head before a longish section of road walking takes us back to the cars.
Limited parking close to Jockey shield so car sharing would be great.
