Walk starts with track through fields to Rydal, then a steep ascent up Nab Scar, onto a broad ridge including Heron Pike and Great Rigg and up to the summit of Fairfield. On the far side of the horseshoe, we descend steeply from Hart Crag, ascend Dove Crag, then it's a gradual descent all the way to Ambleside. Stunning views all round, weather permitting!
