Terrain and Accessibility

Coniston offers good walking for experienced fell walkers and, at lower levels, for the inexperienced and unfit. The path under the Yewdale Crags is suitable for motorised buggies and prams. There are plenty of off-road opportunities for mountain biking, particularly in Grizedale Forest.

The path around Tarn Hows is suitable for wheelchairs and buggies.

Combine walks with cruises on the Launch or Gondola.
Brantwood is accessible by road or boat.

Coniston Launch has wheelchair access from its jetty at Lake Rd. Gondola can take folding wheelchairs and buggies.
