Itinerary The Wayfarers walk through a breathtaking countryside that inspired Wordsworth and is little changed since the poet penned the praises of England's legendary Lake District.
Misty mountains tower over pristine lakes, and sheep dot the hillsides.
We walk the shorelines of Lake Windermere, pass freely through farmlands and seventeenth century villages. Literary allusions abound from Wordsworth's untrodden ways to Beatrix Potter's perfectly preserved Hill Top Farm. We visit tiny Dove Cottage where Wordsworth lived with his family and frequently entertained fellow poets Coleridge and De Quincy. We were strangers with different interests and strengths that ended the week as friends. Sincere thanks to the people who made it possible.
