Rydal | Infinity Pool | Lake District | Hiking | Wild Swimming | Waterfall | Buckstones Jump

A beautiful walk around Rydal in the Lake District, visiting the infinity pool an amazing waterfall with a dipping pool, buckstones jump, another swimming spot with amazing views over Rydal and back down to the 'grot' and waterfall.
Rydal is a lovely village, there are a few eateries dotted around and Rydal water is so peaceful. I had planned to show you Rydal caves on this walk too, which is just across the other side but after a very soggy morning my phone and charger got wet and wouldn't charge meaning I couldn't film. If you did want to visit the caves, which I would recommend, you're better off going early on as they do get very busy.
If you wanted a slightly longer day you could head into Grasmere which is a slightly bigger town, more pubs and shops and you can try the famous Grasmere gingerbread too, which is delicious.

The woodland walk looked amazing with the many waterfalls, and then out in the hills with the magnificent views, wonderful place 💞

[@barefoot_ventures]

Such a beautiful walk up to Buckstones jump.. the waterfalls and the swimming area at the top is soooo pretty 🥰

[@tonypilki3]

The Rydal area is definately underrated compared to many other popular hot spots in the Lakes. So many nice places to walk and visit as you have just shown us. Lovely video showing it off. Thankyou

I dont comment very often, but I must say that this channel is fast becoming one of my Sunday favourites! I love the locations that are shown, and the ladies' enthusiasm for the outdoors is a joy to watch. Thank you for the videos.

[@barefoot_ventures]

[@MancunianMrG]

That was ace. Cheers.

Thankyou very much 😁

[@geroldsss]

Thanks for the walk around Rydal. I think I've read something about a garden there before, or I'm confusing something. The tip with the gingerbread is very good 👍🏻 I love gingerbread 😋There are also various traditional gingerbread here in the Black Forest. They used to be used here as travel provisions for pilgrims. So snacks and hiking have a long tradition 😄

[@barefoot_ventures]

A very important tradition for us to keep too 😍 maybe you can try the gingerbread on your visit next year .. I think you’ll like it 🤤

The scenery in this video was quite beautiful but the woodland around the stream and waterfall was absolutely stunning. Don't know how you passed up the swim on that one. Take care and stay safe.

[@barefoot_ventures]

It was tough but I wanted to get all the locations in for the video.. it’s sometimes tough to fit everything in that I want to do, but I will be back soon and that waterfall pool will be waiting 🧜🏼‍♀️

[@odiatokatulu]

Fantastic area we are not found anywhere in india ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@barefoot_ventures]

I bet you have if you look.. one day I’ll visit and I hope to find some gems 😁

[@Peter-qf6lx]

A nice video, thanks Charlotte, but you don't make clear the distinction between Rydal Hall, whose gardens you walked through at the end, which is a place where anyone can stay (owned by the diocese of Carlisle and used as a Christian retreat centre when I stayed there in the 1980s) and Rydal Mount, the home of William Wordsworth, which is directly across the road. Rydal Mount is owned by descendants of the poet and the house and garden are also worth visiting.

[@barefoot_ventures]

I didn’t make it clear because I didn’t know. I only know what I need to know for what I do in the day. Lots more information on the internet if anyone’s interested in knowing more though 😁
