"Beautifully situated overlooking a curve of Ullswater and commanding unrivalled views of the lovely secluded hinterland of Martindale."

The lowly Hallin Fell above Ullswater and Martindale is a spectacular afternoons walk, with stunning views over Ullswater. The lakeshore path by Kailpot Crag gives wonderful views of both lake and woodland and the climb on grassy paths through bracken covered slopes from above Howtown is a delight. |

From Sandwick we will follow the footpath by Sandwick Bay and along the lakeshore through Hallinhag Woods to Kailpot Crag, overlooking Ullswater before continuing along the lakeshore path past Geordie's Crag to Waternook. From Waternook the path begins to climb to the south, climbing over The Rake where a path climbs the fellside to a cairn overlooking Howtown and then up to the summit of Hallin Fell. The remarkable summit cairn of Hallin Fell marks a spectacular viewpoint over Ullswater and the Martindale Valley. From the summit cairn we will descend south to meet the path to Bridge End and back to Sandwick. Each participant will be required to bring suitable equipment for their chosen event, please see Kit List tab above. |
