Bowfell - This time I could see for miles !
Starting at the Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel, Langdale in the Lake District, this walk follows the valley of Mickleden before climbing onto the first 'Wainwright' of the day - Rossett Pike.
Following a hike upon to Esk Pike the route then takes us up onto the highest point on the day, Bowfell. The walk concludes with a visit to Three Tarns and returns to the Old Dungeon Ghyll via The Band.

Lake District Walks - The Crinkle Crags
The exact same route I planned last week and hoping to do at the end of these week, as I am doing Pike o Blisco and Cold Pike tomorrow. It looked a long and tough route but you seemed to enjoy it, which was good to see. I have been undecided on which way around to go, as I normally prefer to do the highest fell first, have you any thoughts on this? Cheers Alan
Thanks Alan, been watching and enjoying your videos also. Yes, it is a tough route but also very enjoyable with some beautiful views. Good luck tomorrow, stay safe and I hope that the weather stays good for your Bowfell route also. Thank you for watching and commenting. Best Wishes Kevin
Sorry Alan, forgot to add, I try to select the less steep ascent, which I considered to be the anticlockwise one. Going up The Band is a long slog and the climb up to Bowfell follows if you do it clockwise.
Thanks for this. I left the LD years ago but have fond memories, especially Langdale. Then I found a flint axe head in the scree down off Pick O Stickle. The Sheppards Track was my most favoured walk up to Bowfell, my mother's favovourite mountain. Its pleasing to see the place looks so good despite all the human traffic. Your vid brings back many good memories. Thank you.
Marc, thanks for watching and for your nice comments. Glad that you enjoyed the video. You were very lucky to find that axe amongst all that scree. Your mother has very good taste by the way. Thanks again Best wishes Kevin
that was a beautiful hike. i enjoyed it very much. Dwayne
Thank you Dwayne, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated.
Did that walk on Wednesday but chucked in High Raise and Sargent man big day and glad of free parking at the most famous lay-by in Grasmere 👍
Hope you had a great day. Thank you for watching and commenting, much appreciated and yes, free parking in the Lakes, most unusual. 😀
Could the tree with orange coloured flowers have been an azalea? I remember azaleas standing at the entrance of the High Close grounds coming up from Red Bank. My parents were the first wardens there from 1953 till February of 1961. A really nice walk you did there. Thanks for taking us along.
Quite possibly, I'm not well up on flowers, but they were very striking. Interesting story about your parents. Thanks for your comments and taking the time to watch my video, much appreciated.
@@northernwalks5426 I like to blather :) and I know it helps a channel grow. But it is true. You'd find my father in the YHA history of High Close. Not all informations there are sadly quite correct. Pa was not called The Boy, but simply Boy. But it is true that self cooking after 9 pm was not allowed. He had mounted a sheep scull above the inside door of the self cookers' kitchen with the caption: this happened to someone who cooked after nine! ( something to that meaning anyway). More than 60 years of living in Germany and I'm still homesick. Keep walking! Take care.
@@medievalladybird394 Thank you again, I loved the story about the sheep scull - what a way to make a point ! Glad you enjoyed the video, for the homesick there are lots of good channels on youtube relating to the Lake District. If I could suggest a couple - Black Crag and Lake District Films are among my personal favourites, lots of videos to check out there. Keep on blathering, it's good for you!
@@northernwalks5426 You can actually see all my subs. Among others Black Crag, Mal Greenley's Lake District Views ( I order his calendars for myself and as presents), The Solo Summiteer, Mad Mike's World, ... I'll look out for your comments there I only just saw what you wrote last 😂 😂.
Beautiful views of the Lake District Fells
Thanks for your comment and for taking the time to watch my video, much appreciated.
Thanks very much for this great video. It is the best one I have seen for showing what the path is like. I plan to do this route soon and I found it really helpful.
Ian, thanks very much for watching and for your kind comment. I hope that you do get chance to do the walk soon and I am sure you will enjoy it. Please let me know how you get on. Regards Kevin
Nice video .. well presented.. never had a decent view on Great Gable, stunning :)

Wow beautiful video and I really enjoyed watching. New subscriber here from #RTBL Greetings from India 🇮🇳
Thank you for watching and for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video. Many thanks also for subscribing. 👍 Best Wishes Kevin.
Hi, enjoyed that local video. A walk I do the other way round, from Great hill to the tower and back. Can I pick you up on your comments about the route being on the pennine way. I don’t think that’s right! Unless there is an alternative Pennines way!😉
Ian, thank you for your comment, much appreciated. You are quite right to correct me on my comment regarding the Pennine Way, I think the post lockdown euphoria must have addled my brain.
Kevin, this video came into my feed this morning and I was so glad! Great commentary and journey through the route, so easy to follow and know where you where! We've done the other side of the Newlands Round so everything you did was new to us. We turned left after High Spy and descended via the quarry so never got up to Dale Head. Hope you make many more quality videos like this as they help with planning our own trips. Regards, Ashley
Ashley. Thank you very much for your nice comments and support, glad that you enjoyed the video. My wife & I have been enjoying your video uploads for the last couple of years or more and are currently up to walk 21 of your latest holiday in the Lakes. Keep up the good work and please give our regards to Andrea. Regards Kevin
The lakes look amazing. it was a really fun watch. Keep the content coming
Thank you for your comment - much appreciated, glad you enjoyed the video. You are right, the Lake District is an amazing place, a great playground.
Done all these the other week Kev, scenes up there mate 😍
Matt, thank you for your comment, much appreciated. Hope you got the weather and enjoyed the walk as much as I did.
@@northernwalks5426 one of my favorite walks to date mate, glad you enjoyed it 🤙
What a brilliant video, thank you so much for posting 🏞️
Simon, Thank you very much for your nice comment, much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the video. regards Kevin
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the comment, much you appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Kevin, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. I had a similar walking experience end of October 2020, started at nine, found the beck pretty steep and hard going as you did, the Bad Step impassable, but the views glorious. I kept on up Bowfell but it took forever to get back down - I was walking around up there looking to go down around three pm and by the time I was walking along the valley path it was dark. Took just over nine hours all in, so Bowfell wasn’t that much of an addition in hindsight. Challenging top full of boulders though. I regretted not going down the Band as I found Ore Gap quite challenging too, but maybe there’s just no quick way down! Anyway, thank you, took me straight back to my walk.
James Thank you for your comment, much appreciated. I am glad you enjoyed the video and your walk - it is a little tough, especially if you include Bowfell as you did, but it is well worth the effort. I did Bowfell a few years ago after visiting Rossett Pike (a very nice little summit) and Angle Tarn. Unfortunately part way up the climb to Bowfell from Angle Tarn the mist came down and I could only see a few yards ahead when on the summit. Hopefully some time this year we will all be able to travel and get out on the fells again. Until then, thanks again and stay safe !
