Furness Haematite Trail

Industrial heritage walks across the Furness Peninsula

At 39.8 km, this is a demanding long-distance hike that may be split across multiple days. Experienced hikers typically take around 8 hours and 50 minutes to complete it end-to-end.

As a linear trail, this route has distinct start and end points. Return transport is worth arranging in advance unless you plan to walk back the same way.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
