Long description
Another route using public footpaths rather than public rights of way (PRoW), the PRoW near the summit leave quite a difficult scramble up the final ascent to the summit.

This route makes it a little easier for the less experienced.
Facilities

Parking in Wasdale Head but this soon fills up in summer.
