This afternoon walk starts in Elterwater village and follows the valley floor of Great Langdale, returning over Side Pike and Lingmoor Fell. On Side Pike we will negotiate The Squeeze, a narrow gap between the fellside and a large rock, and it is quite a steep ascent to reach the top Lingmoor Fell - we may need our hands to steady us up the rock (nothing technical though).
Start: Car park on the north edge of Elterwater village Grid Reference: NY 329 051 (ie not the car park in the centre of the village)
Start time: 13:00/1pm. Note the late start time
Length of walk: 8 miles
Time: 4.5 – 5 hours
Total ascent: 400 metres
Grade: just about 3
Leader: Jeremy 07899 923019. Let me know if you’re coming, otherwise if I don’t hear from anyone I won’t be there.
