Gummers How

A very short post-prandial stroll with Emma, Nathan and Mitch.

Route: From the road, taking the obvious path through woodland and then climbing the steep paved steps to emerge from the trees to a view of the lake, smoke from Haverthwaite Steam Railway, the Hoad and Morecambe Bay. Then a very gentle scramble to reach the trig point. Returning by heading a little further north and then looping back round east to rejoin the outward path.

Conditions: Very blustery and damp.

Pub: The Masons Arms, Strawberry Bank, beforehand for lunch, Loweswater Grasmoor Dark and Hawkshead Bitter.
