Start: Swindale NY52174 14249
Distance: 8k
Duration: 2.5 hours
Description: 1.5k to end of minor road in Swindale. then following bridleways over terminal morraine humps at head of Swindale, rising steeply S then gently through very boggy land. Leading friend to Mosedale bothy for night camp. Walking from 10pm to 1230am after midnight.

Area : Far Eastern Fells

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
