Coppermines Valley Walk

About

From Coniston village, follow the rough track up past Miners Bridge into a hanging valley scattered with the remains of the Coniston Copper Mines. Steeper than it looks; rewarding all the way.

Roger Recommends

"Wear boots — the track is rocky and wet in places after rain."
