Terrain Overview
Walk Overview
A good walk overall with easy to follow paths and nothing overly steep
Parking in Grasmere can at times be at a premium. Wherever you do find a space
to park, the first objective is to head off down Easdale Lane. Here we are looking
onto Helm Crag
On the track towards the Lancrigg Hotel with Easedale Beck in full flow
Past the front of the Hotel and the start of the climb to Helm Crag
The stone stepped path leading up past Jackdaw Crag
Looking towards Grasmere from the path
Looking across the valley to Easedale Tarn. In the background are the Langdale Pikes
Nearing the summit of Helm Crag
The small rock formation that is the "Lamb" of the Lion and the Lamb
The Howitzer, the true summit of Helm Crag
The path to Gibson Knott - straightforward walking
Ste on the summit of Gibson Knott
Heading off to Calf Crag just as some seriously bad weather comes our way
Then, the rains came in !
At the height of the down pour just as we reach the summit of Calf Crag
Check out the extent of the storm here
We beat a hasty retreat to the valley floor as the tail end of the storm passed over
