An undulating and lengthy walk from Staveley to the small village of Kentmere, with its fortified 14th century Kentmere Hall. The return mostly follows the Kent valley. The walk is 10 miles in length, taking around 4-5 hours, with 880ft of ascent. You can reduce the walk by 2 miles by taking the bridleway southeast to Croft Head, where you pick up the path crossing the River Kent and following the road down the valley.
