Event Description

"This peak has great character, for shapeliness and a sturdy strength combine well in it's appearance, and that splendid cairn etched against the sky is at once an invitation and a challenge."

A Wainwright

From the Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel, Langdale we will climb a short distance along the road towards Blea Tarn before turning off to the right to climb the steep eastern flank of Wrynose Fell, eventually leading to the summit of the wonderful Pike O'Blisco, a conical mountain with some great views of the high fells surrounding it.

Summits included on this route:

Pike O'Blisco	705 metres/2313 feet
Cold Pike (Optional)	701 metres/2300 feet

"Cold Fell is a Crinkle Crag in Minature."

A Wainwright

From Pike O'Blisco we will descend west, dropping down on the good path to Red Tarn, climbing again west a short distance on the track until we turn off and head across country to the summit of Cold Pike.

The rocky summits of Cold Pike give a good view over Little Langdale and Wetherlam.

From Cold Pike we will descend pack to Red Tarn and follow the path that descends by Brown Howe and down into the Oxendale Valley, crossing Oxendale Beck and following the track back by Stool End to the Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel.

Each participant will be required to bring suitable equipment for their chosen event, please see Kit List tab above.
