  • Taking in Wainwright's favourite fell, this is a beautiful circular route from the village of Buttermere to the summit of Haystacks (597m) and on to Innominate Tarn & Green Crag before descending to Gatesgarth Farm.

    Very nice thanks my memory is of how rocky that easy looking down path is underfoot it was a bit relentless I was not far from 60 at the time. The views gorgeous and a very nice route. I guess youd call that the traditional route.

      Thanks Michael, pleased you enjoyed the video 😊 it’s a great route and as you say stunning views throughout! Glad you have fond memories of the place, despite the relentless nature of the descent!

    Beautiful Christine. You cant get much better scenery than the top of Haystacks and around the Lake. Just Gorgeous. I noticed when you had your cake break 🥧😋 there was a good view over to the bothy which looked quite busy with people. One path ive never used but hopefully will on my next visit. Have you ever been to Scale Force Waterfall. Definately worth a visit and a good path up the side up to the High Stile Ridge. A steep ascent but the walk along the ridge is fantastic, on a clear day anyway! Thanks for taking us along Christine, another super video 🙂

      Thank you Tony 🫶🏻 definitely spectacular views back at the summit and descending along from Fleetwith Pike, loved the route! Yes quite a few groups of DoE I think had camped up for the night there, good spot! Did Scale Force with the family quite a few years ago, yet to do the High Stile Ridge though, on the bucket list! Thanks for the recommendation will add to the lovely long list of Lake District walks to tick off in the future 😊

    Well these look like ideal conditions! Fleetwith Pike from the bottom and from the slate quarry are both good and the top of Fleetwith has amazing.views

      The best day of my trip by a mile in terms of weather! Thanks Tim for the recommendations, love Fleetwith Pike, want to get up there for sunset & a camp soon hopefully! 😍

    Great video. My favourite Haystacks walk was starting from Loweswater village along Mosedale, over the High Stile ridge, camping on Haystacks and next day back alongside the lakes.

    • @shefreelyroams
      @shefreelyroams  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thanks Peter for the recommendation, will consider doing this next time I’m that way if conditions allow, Loweswater is a great peaceful place too & glad you enjoyed the video 🫶🏻

    Great walk other side. Park near Rannerdale, head up to Grasmoor via Lad Hows, then onto Grisedale Pike via Sandhill and Hopegill Head, turn around and head back down via Whiteside. It's a cracking walk I promise 👍

    • @shefreelyroams
      @shefreelyroams  Před 4 měsíci

      Haven’t been recommended that one before, just had a little look on OS maps and looks awesome! Thank you 🫶🏻😊

    Amazing video! I’m heading up to Buttermere in 2 weeks time and going to attempt this walk. Do you happen to have a route you could share? I’m quite new to hiking and feel more confident if I have a route to follow. I have a paper map and subscribed to OS Maps. Thanks for sharing your experience!

    • @shefreelyroams
      @shefreelyroams  Před 17 dny

      Thanks Jono, pleased you enjoyed the video and hope you also enjoy the hike in a couple of weeks! Sure, this is the OS route I used for this day but started in the village rather than at the farm at other end of Lake 😊
