The Ullswater Steamer is a unique & fun way to get to Howtown to start the walk, which will also take you from Glenridding elsewhere if you need too - find out more here https://www.ullswater-steamers.co.uk including time tables and prices. On this walk we caught the steamer from Pooley bridge and will catch the back back to Pooley Bridge from Glenridding - so it's essential to time the walk right and not miss the boat back haha |
