Much of this walk follows this quiet and picturesque part of the river Eden. It also takes in the ruins of Lammerside and Pendragon castles for anyone who likes a bit of history.
From Nateby we head across the River Eden to pass the historic Wharton Hall and then follow the course of the river Eden passing Lammerside Castle and probably arriving at what’s left of Pendragon Castle at about lunch time. We turn to head back up the Eden moving away from the river to pass through Dalefoot. The walk rises a little through pasture and woodland before heading back into Nateby to finish.
