I love being outdoors, and lake district is right out my front door, which I try and not take for granted. Planning on a 2 or 3 day expedition to secret river for some gold prospecting in couple weeks time hopefully

I really do find walking for the sake of walking extremely boring. I would literally rather watch paint dry as at least I can sit down and do that.

What about walking for

The views the self discovery the peace the health the adventure the new discoveries the vitality

I am indeed a borrowdale bunny ,hiker scrambler climber camper and mountaineer

Granted have currently defected to Welsh rock and sea

It's sad that some try to demean what I feel I could articulate is one of the most openly beneficial activities a human could partake in

I've not seen anyone on this thread demeaning it, if you enjoy it crack on. Personally I just find it dull.

Scenic yes but the towns etc are so under invested in and run down that they ruin its appeal.

You can't beat a bit of rambling along Squirrels Edge.

I find my adventures are a reflection of my inner self and personality

There's the difference, rather than my adventures being a reflection of what I already am I prefer to absorb new experiences and new sensations that take me out of my comfort zone, to become a more rounded person.

I find that kind of self improvement exciting and one of the most beneficial activities a human could partake in. Horses for courses though

On the lakes specifically they are beautiful, I would just much rather drive through them or cycle than walk them.

I used to live in Troutbeck and work for the National Trust...my window overlooked Grasmere. Happy days. Did a few of the peaks but love the walks through the woods and round the lakes. Would go back if the right opportunity came up...

I love the lakes. I walked from Pooley Bridge to Glenridding along the east side of ullswater years ago and got the boat back. Really enjoyed it but can't walk for pleasure any more

I love the Lakes, I grew up in South Lakes. I miss it and go back as often as I can.
