    Gentle trot around Crummock Water with great views - one uphill section near end which shouldn’t be any problem (unless you hit it at midday on the hottest day of the year like me when it was a bit of an effort)

    High Crag via Sheepbone Rake, returning via Scale Beck. I struggled to find the upper path in Burntness Wood so best to ignore the initial section of this route. Easier to follow the shoreline towards Gatesgarth and ta...
