Brock Crags is a 1,844-foot (561 m) Wainwright fell in the Far Eastern Lake District. A large cairn marks the summit. Brock Crags sits above the charming Lakeland village Low Hartsop. I particularly like the view from here over Brothers Water towards the fells of the Fairfield Horseshoe.

From Brock Crags you can walk to Rest Dodd and The Nab to make a round trip from Low Hartsop. It is a great walk and takes around four to five hours to get around all three. It's also a great way to head onto The Nab via Rest Dodd too which many walkers get a little dubious about. Brock Crag has wonderful views looking down towards Brothers Water and the surrounding fells in the Lake District too.
Check out a recent blog with the walk on to help plan a route if you were wanting to complete all three Wainwrights together.
