1.62 miles/2.6 km and 2.98 miles/4.8 km
843 ft/257 m ascent and 1,335 ft/407 m ascent
1 hour 7 minutes and 1 hour 31 minutes
Easy route up and down to the summit of Lingmoor Fell from the National Trust Blea Tarn car park. Windy on the top, but great views of the Langdale Pikes, Bowfell and Crinkle Crags. An easy stroll to stretch Gillian’s injured leg.
From the road outside Grasmere village (all the car parks were full) up the stepped path to Stone Arthur, crossing the landslide where the path was swept away in December 2015 floods. Reaching the summit from the back – still very windy day.
