  • This Walk Description Is from Happyhiker.Co.Uk High Street And
    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk High Street and Kidsty Pike Starting point and OS Grid reference Free car park at the end of Haweswater (NY 469107) Ordnance Survey map OL5 The English Lakes – North Eastern Area Distance 7.3 miles Date of Walk 24 August 2016 Traffic light rating Introduction: High Street is a broad, flat Lake District summit rising to 2718ft (828m). It provides spectacular views to all the main summits, including Scafell Pike, Great Gable, Helvellyn, Blencathra etc – the list could go on. High Street’s main claim to fame is that it is so named because a Roman road between Ambleside and Brougham (near Penrith) ran over it. In the 18th and 19th centuries, a fair was held there and ponies were raced. Indeed, it still bears the name “Racecourse Hill” on the OS maps. Many described ascent routes for High Street are via the Riggindale ridge, which is slightly shorter but I wanted to traverse Kidsty Pike, with its distinct peak, as well as see Small Water in its lovely setting, so Riggindale was for viewing only. High Street is a relatively quiet spot, not least because getting to this start point is a somewhat tortuous route, even from the Lake District itself. Though I did the walk on an ideal walking day in August, there were only two other people on the summit when I arrived. However, car parking is limited at the head of the Haweswater valley (Mardale Head), so I advise getting there reasonably early. Haweswater was created as a reservoir in the 1930s to serve Manchester and in the process submerged Mardale Green, a small hamlet.

  • Lake District Wainwright Bagging Holiday - the Far Eastern Fells
    Lake District Wainwright Bagging Holiday - The Far Eastern Fells Tour Style: Challenge Walks Destinations: Lake District & England Trip code: DBWBF Trip Walking Grade: 6 HOLIDAY OVERVIEW Wainwright bagging, perfect when you want to release your inner explorer! Alfred Wainwright’s Pictorial Guides have provided the inspiration for many a fell walker, with over two million copies of the books selling since their publication. There are 214 fells described within his books and this holiday takes in all 36 of the fells he enthuses about in his Far Eastern Fells pictorial guide, in one fabulous, challenging holiday. The Far Eastern Fells make up the beautiful and often remote section of fells from the eastern shores of Ullswater, around Haweswater and south to the Kentmere valley. In an energetic week of serious hiking it’s possible to do the lot. We criss-cross the mountains with a few out-and-back extensions here and there to make sure we bag every one. Some very tough days amongst some of Cumbria’s finest fells. HOLIDAYS HIGHLIGHTS • Follow in the footsteps of Alfred Wainwright exploring some of his favourite fells • Bag all 36 of the summits in his Far Eastern Fells Pictorial Guide in one week • Enjoy challenging walking with wonderful views and a great sense of achievement www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 • Let an experienced walking leader bring classic routes often in remote offbeat areas to life • Enjoy magnificent Lake District scenery • Stay in a beautiful country house where you can relax and share stories of your day in the evenings TRIP SUITABILITY This trip is graded walking Activity Level 6.

  • Singles Walking Club Newsletter
    The Sunday Walking Group Newsletter MAY 2017 LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN Welcome to the SWG May Newsletter. The arrival of May is usually marked with celebration, as winter is now behind us, and there is plenty to rejoice about in the Lancashire countryside. Spring also offers budding bird spotters an opportunity to see Cuckoo, Green Woodpecker, Redstart & Bull Finches, as their numbers will start to increase. We have four splendid walks organised for you this month taking in hills, fells, rivers, lakes, woods & moorland. This month also includes the group’s walking week away to Jersey. People do amazing things to raise money for the causes they care about, and this year the SWG is raising money for Rosemere Cancer Care. So far this year, the SWG has raised approximately £464 but with a little effort I think we could raise even more money for our chosen charity. This month, we would like to gather together a crack team to participate in a fund-raising car boot sale, which will take place on Sat 27th May @ 6.30am at Botany Bay Chorley. We would like to invite you to help us and raise money for this worthy cause. So, if you would like to donate good quality items for us to sell, or if you could assist us on the stalls, that would be equally amazing. The SWG has kindly agreed to pay the £10 entrance fee for each volunteer vehicle that is taking part. To add to the fun, and so that the pitches can be grouped in close proximity, we plan to arrive at the Botany Bay car boot together and set up our own little area of stalls.
