I did this walk a couple of year ago ....in the mist so I didn't get to see much. It was fantastic to do it in clear weather and with someone else (Richard). Because I haven't done many walks recently I was a bit 'out of shape' so found it hard going. However, we got round in one piece !!. Clockwise from the car park in Ambleside on the Grasmere road.

I had considered taking in Stone Arthur as a little detour but by the time we were close to the sunmit of Great Rigg an extra 2 mile detour including 1000 ft down and then back up again did not appear to attractive.

Heron Pike and Great Rigg |
So - no new Wainwrights bagged this time , but my 'second time round list' is now into double figures.
Superb day out - about 10.5 miles. OS OL5 and OL7
