How this plan is made
No one picks these by hand and no one pays to be in them. The planner's rules take the places and roads the Lake District's pages rank, for anyone, any month: each day the best roads close together, in riding order, and a night in the town nearest where they end. Distances are as the crow flies, so the road is longer. Check opening times on each place's page before you go. How the ranking works.
