Millican Dalton Experience


 

Follow in the footsteps of Borrowdale's very own 'Professor of adventure, and experience the uncomplicated lifestyle of Millican Dalton.

We will explore the jaws of Borrowdale on foot, climb to the summit of castlecrag and visit the cave which he made his home. We will delve into his chosen way of life, discover the importance of this beautiful lakeland valley, and experience the magic of the area in which he chose to live. Our adventure ends as we push, pull and paddle our canoes down the tranquil River Derwent that leads onto Derwentwater, repeating the journey Millican Dalton made hundreds of times, on his famous raft 'rogue herries'.
