The Walk
Difficulty Level: Moderate – hiking with scrambling (grade 1).
The Area: This location in the Lake District contains some wonderful scenery. We will walk up to the rugged ridge from the river, rising above the lake, and and scramble over the rocks before we reach the peak for breathtaking views from the top at 950m above sea level. This is an easy scramble with world-beating views from the start. Climbing up the ridge, you will be exposed on both sides to views of the Lake District and surrounding areas. We will scramble at a leisurely pace, providing assistance, and allowing for rest stops allowing us to take in the scenery and enjoy the hike. We will stop to provide information and Islamic reminders along the route.
The route is 13km long and you should expect to finish by 6pm.
