Explore the Kendal - Carus Green Trail
Location: Kendal, Westmorland and Furness
One for a drier time as the paths can be muddy.. Set on the northern edge of Kendal, this circuit of two adjoining loops links riverside running with open countryside. With only about 35 metres of gentle climbing spread across the distance, the terrain stays largely flat with only mild undulations. Underfoot is a roughly even mix of paved surfaces and off-road tracks, alternating between quiet lanes and grassy paths.
One section traces the bank of the River Kent, with Carus Green Golf Club sitting just across the water, while the other loop swings out towards Hallgarth. The riverside ground can become soft and muddy after heavy rain, though stretches along Burneside Road provide firmer footing. A straightforward run blending town-edge lanes with a peaceful waterside path.
