    Tips

    Hiking

    A wild side valley that branches off to the northwest of Upper Wasdale, Mosedale is a beautiful place to explore. It is ringed by some of the Lake District's most formidable fells, such as Yewbarrow, Red Pike and Pillar. The traverse of its skyline, the Mosedale Horseshoe, is a classic outing.

    Hiking

    A beautiful wild valley offshoot from Wasdale. The path here heads up to Black Sail Pass for access to Ennerdale and also is the main start for the Mosedale Horseshoe which is a round of the valley including Pillar, Scoat Fell, Red Pike and Yewbarrow.
    There used to be a good scree here from Dore Head back into Mosedale but not anymore.
