Far Sawrey – Moss Eccles Tarn – Wise Een Tarn – Claife Heights (High Blind How) (OF) – Pate Crags – Far Sawrey
Weather: Started off promising with the sun threatening to break through the morning mist…but it never!
This morning’s short walk starts at Sawrey, the home of Beatrix Potter, and is a round of the high ground known as Claife Heights which lies between the western shore of Windermere and Esthwaite Water. The walk follows Wainwright’s Claife Heights chapter in his book ‘The Outlying Fells of Lakeland’, page 80.
Looking across to Near Sawrey at the start of the walk. The weather looked promising here as the sun was shining and the mist beginning to clear.

Looking back to Wise Een Tarn on the right and on the left is a reservoir of the Freshwater Biological Association based at Far Sawrey.
