Sour Howes

Vandring

5.0

(131)

Sour Howes is the summit of the broader Applethwaite Common, which rises between Troutbeck and Kentmere in the eastern Lake District. Hikes to Sour Howes take you to a charming landscape of green hillocks and knolls with tremendous views down towards Windermere and beyond to Morecambe Bay.

In fact, Sour Howes enjoys an enviable position on the southeastern fringes of mountainous Lakeland and is a surprisingly serene summit considering its status as the closest Wainwright to the honeypots of Windermere and Bowness. It is, in effect, the termination of the long Ill Bell ridge, which forms the western leg of the Kentmere Horseshoe.

Most ascents begin from either Troutbeck or Kentmere and easily fit into a couple of hours. If you set out on a longer walk to Sour Howes from Windermere, it makes sense to combine the journey with a visit to Orrest Head, the viewpoint that enraptured Wainwright on his first visit to Lakeland.

    Vandring

    Sour Howes is a 1,585-foot (483 m) Wainwright in the Far Eastern Lake District that is known locally as Applethwaite Common. Sour Howes has a lovely view down Windermere. I highly recommend an ascent of Sour Howes for sunset in the summer. The sun sets behind the bank of high fells to the west silhouetting iconic mountains like the Scafells, Great Gable and Crinkle Crags beautifully.
