Short description

The full round, from Kentmere (get there early for the carparking) taking in Kentmere Pike, Harter Fell, Mardale Ill Bell, High Street, the Beacon, Froswick, Ill Bell, Yoke and the Garburn Pass back to Kentmere.

Excellent route, only about 2 miles on the flat... Everything else is either at an up angle or a down angle. Navigation should be fine, but as ever mist and low cloud could make the descents on rolling stones a tad more interesting.
