Hiking
It's worth making a stop and perhaps a detour on your hike at Whin's Head. There's no easily discernible top, but you will find a rocky outcrop here, which is likely the 384m summit.
There are gorgeous views from up here down into Low Borrowdale north and west of here (although the motorway does spoil it...). In the eastern direction, it's steep and hard work - towards Fell Head (over 200m higher than here) and beyond, but remember: no pain no gain!
