Hugill Fell (OF)
and
Reston Scar (OF)
from Staveley
Route Map
Today's two short walks follow Wainwright's
Hugill Fell and Reston Scar chapters in his book 'The Outlying Fells of
Lakeland', pages 22 and 24. They both start from different places in
Staveley and it was almost like two different days with the Hugill Fell
walk done in the rain and the Reston Scar walk done under blue skies and
sunshine.
