It is not meant to be anything mor Ethan some helpful advice. I am happy to receive feedback from anyone better informed. Thanks
Firstly you should not go out on any moor or hill I'll-prepared. Basics such as food, waterproofs, water and first aid kit is essential. Map should be Explorer 25000 for walking and preferably in a waterproof case. Plus a compass. GPS is NOT enough.
Footwear should be firm and boots preferred especially if going out away from your car.
Lots of great things for kids to do if you want something organised
Cumbria Tourism will help find a wonderful collectioof child friendly activities

My favourite walks include Cat Bells and have seen many young folk go up, the views are great.
Boat trip around Ullswater is a must.

Windermere also contains a range of boat services as does Derwent.
