Tips

Hiking

Rest Dodd is a 2,283-foot (696 m) Wainwright fell in the Far Eastern Lake District which has a rounded dome-like summit. The fell is in the Martindale deer forest so if you're hiking around here (particularly in the early morning or late evening) you're very likely to see a herd of deer along your route. Keep your eyes peeled as most of the time they'll stay far away from the paths (and you)!

Hiking

Rest Dodd is yet another Wainwright fell in this area of the eastern fells. From the south it has a pleasant, rounded, grassy summit, but from the north the face is quite dramatic and steep. If you decide to hike The Nab along with Rest Dodd, you are in for a good climb on the way back. It is a lovely Wainwright, however, that gives you fine views out towards The Knott and High Raise in particular.
