Not far from the busy slopes of Scafell Pike, discover the quieter side of the Western Fells on this circular above Wastwater. There's a hidden mountain tarn, views over the Wasdale Screes & if visibility is good, the Isle of Man.

  • 🌸Ancient woodlands are famous for bluebell carpets in April and May — one of Britain's most spectacular wildflower displays
  • 🐦Prime nesting season — listen for woodpecker drumming, warbler song and the first cuckoos from April
  • 🦌Roe deer are active before the leaf canopy closes in — dawn and dusk are best
