  • Mid-February 2024, Neil heads out from beside the River Duddon, through Hardknott Forest (and a red squirrel encounter) and up Harter Fell. It's a steep ascent (Wainwright recommended the route from neighbouring Eskdale), but the views are stunning, particularly in the snow.
    Route available here: explore.osmaps.com/route/2090...
    From the top, you can see across to the Scafell range, as well as out to sea. This walk is a round 4 1/4 miles, from the carpark beside the river, and is around 518m/1,700 ft of ascent and descent.
    Our film of a visit to the Hardknott Roman Fort is here: • Lake District Walks | ...

    Another great video Neil, thanks for posting it. This fell (and the route taken) is on my 2024 to do list so it's really useful for my prep. I'll be watching it again. Cheers

    Hi Neil, wonderful video as always mate. I do love Harter Fell, it’s one of my favourite mountains in the Lake District. It never fails to disappoint. The view north up to the Sca Fell Massif is fantastic. All the best and thank you for sharing your adventure as always. All the best, Dave 🥾⛰😀

    Great to see another one of your videos. Made for a very enjoyable watch. Lots of terrific scenery too. How lovely to see the red squirrel. Keep meaning to do that Wetherlam walk you did incorporating Black Sails but changed my mind last time out and ended up going over Lingmoor & Side Pike via Blea Tarn. Maybe next time out. Thanks for sharing this excellent walk with us.

    Excellent video as we've come to expect. Not an overly complicated paff (or path) to follow, but t'would be helpful if you could perhaps include the gpx file in the description... Just saying.

    • @LakeDistrictFilms
      @LakeDistrictFilms  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Thanks for the idea! Will look into it and see if I can add it to the other films. All the best, Neil
