Buttermere Amble, AVOIDING the crowds! - A circular walk of Buttermere, Lake District, England

A 7K circular walk around Buttermere, avoiding the crowds!
We begin near the Bridge Hotel and I provide insight of the free bus. Taking the path towards Scale Force, we avoid the main path leading to the lake which many tourist use. However, when we get to Buttermere Dubs we cross the bridge of Scale Bridge, and then turn left to follow the river Buttermere Dubs.
Eventually, we will cross of the stream of Sourmilk Gill which lands at out feet from the waterfall which we admire fo some time. We then continue on this path away from the crowds on a higher plane so that we can see extensive views. This path is actually in a wooded area which is mainly pine. The trees leave us about half way down the west side of the lake as we are journeying in an anti clockwise direction. As we go through the gate of the forest are eyes enjoy the feast of the picture that is Buttermere in it's stillness.
We follow the path to the side of the lake where we witness cattle bathing in the lake. The we continue admiring Fleetwith Pike and Haystacks mountains. Next we go over Peggy's Bridge following the path to Gatesgarth Farm where we collect a luxury lakeland ice cream. Having refreshed ourselves we head along the east side of the lake and go through the tunnel. Eventually, we emerge from the tunnel and continue our journey to the north shore which is where we complete our journey.
This walk is mainly flat but does contain a couple of rocky places near the tunnel, these are shown in the video to demonstrate the near for adequate shoes at this point. Whilst I will always recommend a map for even the shortest of walks, you should only need your map for reassurance, the path is clearly visible all the way around the lake.
