Joe's Walk

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A lovely stretch of trail named Joe's Walk, runs alongside fields containing small farm animals like sheep, emus, pygmy goats and alpacas. Pretty wild flowers line the hedgerows. The Fitz Country House sits to the south of the 20 acres of Fitz Park.

Gote Bridge over the River Derwent

Highlight • Bridge

Cross the bridge from the centre of Cockermouth to the north side of the town to walk the trails along the river bank. This river (and the River Cocker which also runs through the town) burst their banks in 2009, with flood water rising to 8ft deep through town, devastating homes and local businesses.
