Skiddaw

"The western aspect is best known to Bassenthwaite folk, who enjoy a secret delight few others have discovered."
A.Wainwright

The fourth highest peak, Skiddaw, in the Lake District is usually climbed from the south, where a direct path climbs from Keswick. Although this route has some wonderful views it can be a bit monotonous trudging up and down the 'Pony Track'.

Instead we climb from the North Western side, here we begin with wonderful views over Bassenthwaite Lake and out towards the Solway Coast before the views expand to take in Borrowdale and Derwent Water and the higher fells beyond.

The Ullock Pike Ridge is a great ridge walk, usually well away from the masses.
