Miles without Stiles

This part of the website is under development, please bear with us!  

Local people have been telling us that they would like information about where to find short, local routes, suitable for everybody, and about what to expect when they get there. 

So, we are developing a set of "Miles without Stiles" routes.  Information will be available here shortly!  The "Miles without Stiles" routes will give detailed information about distances, surfaces, and any gates or gaps that you might come across. 

Longlands Lake near Cleator is one of the first sites which is nearly ready, a 1-mile circular route, designed with people with limited mobility in mind.  We are working with members of Allerdale Disability Association to make sure the information provided is as good as possible.  We recently had an article published in "Your Cumbria" magazine, which you can download below.  

For more information about the "Miles without Stiles" project, please use the 'Contact Us' information on the left-hand side to send in your query.  Likewise, if you know of a place that would be good to promote in this way, please get in touch!
