Paths and Pages: Stock Ghyll Force (SOLD OUT)
Location
Grove Barn via Stock Ghyll Force
About
Join us for a peaceful morning of walking, reading and slowing down in the beautiful landscape around Ambleside.
We are delighted to be partnering with The Wellbeing Way and Grove Barn Café for our very first Gathering, combining a beautiful walk with a peaceful reading space and warm Lake District hospitality.
We'll meet outside the main entrance to the Armitt Museum and Library before setting off together on a leisurely circular walk through woodland to Stock Ghyll Force and onwards to Grove Barn. Along the way, there'll be time to pause, enjoy the scenery and simply appreciate being outdoors together.
At Grove Barn, an exclusive private reading space will be waiting for us. With a hot drink, homemade cake and your current book, you'll have an uninterrupted hour to settle in and read in peaceful surroundings.
After our reading hour, we'll return to Ambleside via a different route, completing our circular walk and arriving back at around 1.00pm.
There are no reading lists, no discussion questions and no pressure. Just bring the book you're currently reading (or the one you've been meaning to start) and enjoy a morning dedicated to slowing down.
Whether you're joining with a friend or coming on your own, you'll be warmly welcomed. Many of our guests come solo, and our Gatherings are designed to be friendly, relaxed and easy to join.
Things to Know
The walk is approximately 3 miles and includes public footpaths, woodland trails, uneven ground, steps and one steady uphill section.
The walk is taken at a relaxed pace, with plenty of opportunities to pause and enjoy the surroundings. Participants should be comfortable walking the full route over uneven ground and gentle inclines.
Places are limited to 10 guests to keep the Gathering relaxed and intimate.
Refreshments are included in your ticket. Please let us know of any dietary requirements when booking.
The Gathering will go ahead in most weather conditions, so please come prepared for the forecast.
We'll be taking photographs and short videos to share future Gatherings and Retreats across our website, newsletter and social media. If you'd prefer not to appear in any photographs or videos, simply let us know when you arrive.
Please read our Gatherings Terms and Conditions before booking wordsandwater.co.uk/gathering-terms
We can't wait to welcome you to the very first Words and Water Gathering and share a slower morning of walking, reading and noticing more together.
Tickets £12
