Two more contenders for #ThickTrunkTuesday from my @slowwaysuk.bsky.social walks yesterday Chapel Stile to Ambleside to Windermere as part of the #NationalParksTrail. #Redwood #LakeDistrict

A yew tree growing over some exposed rock, making it look as though the roots are flowing down the rock like lava.

#ThickTrunkTuesday from my @slowwaysuk.bsky.social #NationalParksTrail walk yesterday from Ambleside to Windermere.

Two excellent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ routes to come. Brilliant!

Four way fingerpost pointing to Cragg Vale, Mytholmroyd, Hebden Bridge and Stoodley Pike. Backed by a stone wall with a gate stoop at the end.

Hoping to verify two legs and 30km of the #SlowWays #NationalParksTrail today.

Great day out exploring the #SlowWays #NationalParksTrail!

Decided to go the slower way around to play with possibilities.. so finished in #Princetown.

Getting buses and trains back to #Exeter might take just as long.. let's see! 🤞

#Chagford #Devon

Looking forward to hiking two routes across #Dartmoor today, checking a good chunk of the #SlowWays #NationalParksTrail.

#Chagford - #Princetown - #Yelverton

Looking forward to it.
