Start point: Grizedale Forest visitor centre (SD 336 945)

Carron Crag (OF) from Grizedale Forest visitor centre

Distance: 3.6 miles     Total Ascent: 243 metres     Time Taken: 1 hour

Weather: Sunny and clear. 5ºC.

The sun was shining and the skies were blue this afternoon, so I took the opportunity for a short walk up to Carron Crag from the Grizedale Visitors centre near Satterthwaite. It’s a little bit odd this walk as most of it is in the forest, so there are no views until you reach the summit ridge where everything opens up before you. Well worth a visit.
