My HARDEST day in the Lake District | Hiking the Cumbria Way (pt. 2): Great Langdale to Carlisle

☕ https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Ellihikes

In August 2024, Otto and I travelled to the Lake District in the northwest of England, an area we've never been to before. Come join us for part 2 of our thru-hike of the Cumbria Way, a 71-mile long walk through the heart of the Lake District vom Ulverston to Carlisle.
After one of the hardest and wettest days in my backpacking life ever, we also had our best day on the trail with incredible views and the perfect hiking weather.
The question in the end is: Would I do the hike again and would I recommend it?

Lots of love and happy hiking,
Elli and Otto 🐕‍🦺
