Visions of Cumbria

 

The purpose of this section is to show various pictures from Cumbria which do not normally appear on our walks pages. They may have been taken on a day out or maybe on the way to or back from one of our walks or sent in by one of our readers. Either way I hope that you will enjoy them.


Some pictures of Grasmere that I took on my walk of the 04/03/2008. There were far to many to include in the walk itself.
