Red Screes

"it offers a reward of excellent views."

A. Wainwright

Although the obvious high level walk from Ambleside is the Fairfield Horseshoe an ascent of Red Screes makes a worthwhile alternative, with great views south over Windermere and across to The Coniston Fells beyond as well as the dramatic views north from the summit over Brothers Water to Ullswater and of the high fells on either side.

The long gentle southern shoulder of Red Screes, over Snarker Pike, makes an enjoyable climb with good views throughout.

From the summit of Red Screes the lower fells either side of Scandale Pass can also be covered before the long descent from Scandale Pass along the Scandal Valley by High Sweden Bridge and back to Ambleside.
