Description

9km, 610m
An parents only day with the Haynes' and Weaver's. A gentle day to get back into walking for some, from Patterdale, over Place Fell to Howtown. Just managed to coordinate with the steamer (thanks to it running late). Had a pint in Patterdale and a curry in Knutsford!

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
