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.
Summits included on this route:
Hallin Fell388 metres / 1273 feet
From the church we descend to 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 our start point.
Each participant will be required to bring suitable equipment for their chosen event, please see Kit List tab above.

What happens if the weather is bad?
We plan to walk whatever the weather, unless it is dangerous to do so.
Mountain weather can be a little unpredictable, but we do keep an eye on the forecasts leading up to walks, should the forecast mean that the walk is not possible then we will contact you as soon as we have the forecast and offer you the following options:
Are dogs allowed on this walk?
Yes, dogs are allowed on all our walks.
However we do cross farmland and common land where animals will be grazing, there will be large sections of the walk, if not all, where dogs will be required to be on a lead.
