Terrain Overview
Walk Overview
The smallest of all the Wainwright Outlying Fell walks. A very pleasant 20 minute
stroll, however take note that parking at the Outdoor Education Centre is
extremely limited
From Grange over Sands follow the road towards Allithwaite and then
the Humphrey Head Outdoor Education Activity Centre. I managed to
squeeze into a layby just yards from the entrance to the Centre
The entrance to the Outdoor Active Centre
The Information Board about the Centre and its activities
A tarmac road leads gently upwards towards the Centre
As you approach the Outdoor Centre entrance gate, swing right and follow
a grass path
The grass track follows the line of a fence and is easy walking
Following the track, cross the field and head towards a gated fence wall
On reaching the gate veer right to the corner of the field where a sheep pen
gate gives access to the summit approach as this gate is padlocked
The sheep pen gate that gives access to the summit approach
What follows now is a short grassy promenade to the summit
The summit Trig Point comes in to view
