After a short plumbing job in Appleby on a wet Monday morning, a lovely afternoon's walk above Ullswater. 5.5 miles 1350ft
Setting off from Pooley Bridge on the path to Arthur's Pike (topleft) |
The path joins a stretch of the old Roman road of High Street, here going from Galava 19miles (Ambleside) to Brocavum 7miles (Penrith) |
After gaining some height, below is Pooley Bridge on Ullswater and Cross Fell on the distant horizon |
A wider view looking north from the top of Arthur's Pike.... |
....and more of Ullswater looking south |
The marina directly below on the west side of the lake |
A late lunch by the cairn above Whinny Crag |
Waternook house beside Howtown bay below Hallin Fell |
Hallin Fell from the today's high point of Bonscale Pike 1718ft |
Martindale and Place Fell from the same place |
Zooming in on the road climbing over The Hause into Martindale |
Approaching the hamlet of Howtown with Pikeawassa behind |
A very ancient packhorse bridge next to the path into the hamlet |
