THE LANGDALE PIKES
Join us in Langdale (by the New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel) for this autumnal Wainwright bagging adventure.
We meet in the Stickle Ghyll Car Park and head immediately up, alongside the cascading falls of Stickle Ghyll. At the head of the falls, we pause at Stickle Tarn, a breathtaking tarn at the foot of Pavey Arc. From here, we can see much of where we'll be heading. Setting off then for our Wainwright peaks of:
Wainwrights:
1. Pavey Arc
2. Thunacar Knott
3. Harrison Stickle
4. Pike o'Stickle
5. Rossett Pike
Although there is no technical terrain, this is a challenging hike in a remote mountainous environment where hands may be required to cover steeper rock on occasion. A good level of fitness is required. Groups are encouraged to stick together and there are no medals for finishing first.
