    Tips

    Stickle Ghyll flows steeply down from Stickle Tarn to the Great Langdale Beck in the valley. It's a rocky ghyll with lots of waterfalls and pools, perfect for a paddle and picnic but also used for ghyll scrambling.

    The main path that follows the ghyll is a bit rocky with some big steps but it’s not climbing and suitable for all ages. Kids love the scramble and reaching the tarn at the top is a great target.

    The National Trust have a hydroelectric scheme about half way up the valley which provides the power needed to run the Sticklebarn pub.
