| Nat Park | Lake District | | County/Area | Cumbria | | Author | Lou Johnson | | Length | 9.5 miles / 15.4 km | | Ascent | 1700 feet / 515 metres | | Grade | moderate/hard |
This Lake District walk from Grasmere visits High Raise, Calf Crag, Gibson Knott and Helm Crag. A fairly demanding walk, it can be wet underfoot after heavy rain. Despite this the views are excellent and the walking very rewarding with five Wainwrights included in the walk.
