Itinerary description
|
The description first in Basque and then in Spanish.
We parked the car at Traveler's Rest inn. £ 5. It is paid inside the bar. We climbed up the Tongue Gill Valley to Grisedale Hause without any difficulty. From there to Fairfield, up a fairly steep climb. At our foot is the Rydal Valley offering a breathtaking view. Over here we will gradually lose altitude in a grassy and comfortable route. After passing Heron Pike we turn right past Alcock Tarn. We had to do the last kilometer, or so, on the side of the road. I will classify the route as medium. It has a steep slope but the terrain is generally comfortable and tender.
We parked at the Traveller's Rest inn. The £ 5 is paid inside. We climbed the Grisedale Hause through the Tongue Gill Valley. The climb to Fairfield is a bit hard. At our feet the Rydal Valley offers us an unbeatable spectacle. Hemoa gradually lost its height to Heron Pike from where, passing through Alcock Tarn, we reached the road. We do the last kilometer next to the road (it is a parallel path). I classify it as a medium. It has an elevation difference but the terrain is comfortable.
