A round out of Burton-in-Kendal bagging Dalton Hill, Hutton Roof Crags, Longfield Hill, Highheads Wood, Hunger Hills, Farleton Fell and Hanging Hill | PhilipChaston | 28/01/2024 |
Parked just off the road at the start of the access track 200m SSW of Carlingwha Farm. Large turn-in so no danger of blocking access. Walked down the road to beyond the bridleway and took an easy direct ascent up the mast access track. | moorsman | 20/04/2023 |
Managed to squeeze car into area beside track through woods about 200 metres North of the footpath. Then accessed footpath but like others used the farm track which winds nicely up through two more gates to reach summit without having to walk over the grass crops. | nickywood1 | 21/03/2020 |
A grassy lump in near darkness, with sizzling air- the effect of dreek on overhead cables. Definitely felt hungry on our last hill of the day. | Denise | 24/01/2020 |
Squeezed the car in at SD 5732 8120 without blocking the field gate. Farm track meanders up to near the hill top. 3 gates, all easy openers. | jonglew | 30/11/2018 |
Catastrophic wardrobe failure on running descent (behind back of tractor driver whilst he was on an outward leg of mowing field to north). Complete sole of one of my trusty old Walsh fell shoes came off. Miraculously I had feared this and was carrying spare trainers - lovely and sparklingly clean - alas not for long. 16th of 24 tumps on a 14 hr 50km linking walk / jog with Darren. Dozens of young partridges on track east which scuttled along ahead of us. (dazzled by my new trainers?) | Chris Pearson | 16/07/2016 |
Up from bway, down via farm track. Big tractor trundling round last time I tried. Now just his fat tyre tracks | RHW | 05/09/2015 |
Just up from farm parking off road bt FP finger post. Across field then cut up to summit. Back down hard standing track to road and short pull back to parking. | nordicstar | 01/02/2015 |
Along bridleway that starts E of Lupton Hall farm, then up to R edge of copse. Over fence into field, rounded grassy summit near hedge, not far from pylon. | Aye Jimmy | 28/12/2014 |
Took farm track almost to top of hill. | citygent | 27/10/2014 |
Parked at start of bridleway to N of summit. Descended by the drier pylon access road | jimbloomer | 13/01/2014 |
