Reaching their highest point at High Street(828 metres) they occupy a broad area to the east of Ullswater and Kirkstone Pass. Much quieter than the central areas of Lakeland they offer in general easier but less exciting walking as the fells merge mainly into the surrounding moorlands. Exceptions however are the fine rock scenery to be seen surrounding the head of Haweswater
Stayed at campsite then walked via Boredale House to Place Fell then to High dodd and back via Ullswater edge. Walk with stepbrother as one of his first mountain days. Excellent weather with fantastic views, especially beautiful whilst walking back along the edge of Ullswater.
