A walk around Grisedale Map: Ordnance Survey Explorer OL`19 – Howgill Fells & Upper Eden Valley Standing by Garsdale Station the prominent hill looking west is Baugh Fell with the cairns of Grisedale Pike visible at the near end. Below Grisedale Pike to the north is Grisedale, a remote valley lying beneath the heights of Swarth Fell. Grisedale featured in a Yorkshire documentary ‘The Dale That Died’ in 1975, a book to accompany the programme was produced by Barry Cockcroft. The Clough River has its source in Grisedale. Tributaries on Swarth Fell and Baugh Fell are collected into Grisedale Beck which continues as Clough River running through Grisedale Head and down Garsdale to join the River Rawthey near Gardsale Bridge. Some of the old farms in Grisedale have been refurbished and are lived in; many are in ruins such as Rowantree, East Scale where there is a Quaker burial ground, West Scale and Round Ing. Here is an easy walk of 8.5 miles which incudes an exploration of Grisedale and continues further by How Beck Bridge to follow the River Ure and on to Garsdale Station.

  • Fell End Clouds Near Kirkby Stephen
    Fell End Clouds near Kirkby Stephen County/Area - Cumbria Author - Lou Johnson Length - 3.0 miles / 4.9 km Ascent - 550 feet / 167 metres Grade - easy Start - OS grid reference NY733005 Lat 54.399262 / Long -2.412767 Postcode CA17 4LL (approx. location only) This easy walk explores an area of limestone country that adjoins the western slopes of Wild Boar Fell. Besides the immediate interest provided by the limestone outcrops and pavements you get some fine views across the surrounding countryside including the Eden Valley, the Howgill Fells and northern slopes of Baugh Fell which lies above Dentdale. The start is at grid ref NY734005 where parking is available in an old quarry on the minor road formerly known as "the Street". This minor road is signed Ulldale and Fell End off the A683 Sedbergh to Kirkby Stephen Road. After parking walk towards the main road. On your right there is a stone wall. Leave the minor road just before the wall and follow a track that twists and turns up towards a ridge. In places the track is rather vague but it becomes more obvious as height is gained. The OS Explorer map provides good guidance. As you climb the views improve with the track eventually reaching a col (grid ref. NY742001). Ahead lies rough moorland that forms the western slopes of Wild Boar Fell. Turn right (southwest) along the ridge aiming for a large prominent cairn. Across the valley to your right lie the Howgill Fells with Harter Fell the dominant summit in the foreground. Beyond you can see the hump backed hills that are so typical of the Howgills.
