The Wythburn path zig zags across the fellside before entering the plantation where the path back to Swirls car park is met after a few hundred yards. Below, out of sight, is Wythburn Church. Thirlmere now fills the valley which once held a thriving community until the reservoir was built in the late 19th century.
