    Tips

    fantastic scramble along waterfalls, good to have waterproof boots

      August 31, 2025

      This is a short but high ascent of a scramble called Foxes Rake. It is a relatively easy scramble but if wet would be very slippy. This takes you up to a plateau where Foxes Tarn should be if not in drought (it was) and then you can choose if you want to play and scramble again up stagger up what was grass banking as such. Once at the top you can tap out on Scafell Cairn the 2nd highest Fell in the Lakes.
