Masmill Beck Trail


(Average user rating: unrated unrated)
The quiet picnic site and cark park at Noble Knott are the perfect place to begin this gentle circular route. As it meanders through the ancient oaks at Noble Knott, it eventually finds the forest road, and returns to the car park taking in some fabulous views of Bassenthwaite Lake
