A beautiful sunny lunchtime walk. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 06/01/2024 |
High Doat and Castle Crag from Rosthwaite. | PGCE | 04/09/2023 |
A pleasant afternoon walk in Upper Borrowdale. Starting from the NT car park I went up High Doat, incredibly for the first time, with a splendid view from the summit. Then north along the terrace track and for a fourth ascent of Castle Crag. Back along the River Derwent made it a delightful round. 7km with 300m ascent in 2h 20m. | silveracorn_alan | 27/08/2023 |
An afternoon walk with Clare. Took some good photos on the summit. | Dangerous Dave | 16/05/2023 |
Ascended from Seatoller on a brilliant, sunny winter's day. Wished that I still had the energy for the high tops. I found the start a bit confusing with many paths and walls and the summit not visible. Eventually sorted it out and was rewarded with a fine view. | JohnW | 07/03/2023 |
My first time up here in a few months. A sunny afternoon with light snow on the ground. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 16/01/2023 |
Rock out crop in grassy sheep pasture. Abney used as several outcrops. Still , mild , grey , but ridges out of cloud and helvellyn tops dusted with snow. From Rosthwaite NT car park. Expensive unless you are a member. £5 in adjacent community hall carpark. | Denise | 31/12/2022 |
From Rosthwaite village hall car park(£5/day). Field path to Longthwaite then circuitous anti-clockwise approach to summit, path all the way. High point rock outcrop in grass. Good views. | RichardM | 31/12/2022 |
