From here you continue down the east side of Coniston Water for several miles past the edges of Grizedale Forest, and through the village of Nibthwaite. Then on to Lowick and the temptation of the Red Lion Inn.

INTERESTING FACT: Look to your right as you walk through Nibthwaite. Just behind a farm gate, you may spot an Antony Gormley life-size figure, looking out over Coniston Water. Apparently, Antony Gormley is a frequent visitor to the area.
