Whiteside, Hopegill Head & Grisedale Pike. Lake District. 14th April 2021

A superb walk starting from the parking area at Lanthwaite Green, next to Crummock Water in the Lake District. The walk climbs up fairly steeply to Whin Ben before reaching the summit of Whitside (707m). From the summit of Whiteside the walk continues over a superb ridge before reaching the summit of Hopegill Head (770m). The walk then follows the clear path over to Grisedale Pike (791m) The views from all three summits are superb and far reaching. From Grisedale Pike the walk then heads down to Coledale Hause before the final section through the valley of Gasgale Gill. The valley has some really nice waterfalls as you head back to the starting point. Distance is around 6.5 miles.
