Most of the walking is easy, using well-established routes along the valley bottoms. If you're reasonably fit you should comfortably complete one of the walks during a week's holiday, and still have time for a day out to climb a mountain or explore a Lakeland town too.
Each route can be split up into short walks to be enjoyed at different times, but by far the best way is to tackle them as a continuous day after day series of delights. That way the body and mind become more attuned to the sights and sounds of the countryside and you will feel all the better for it.
