Possibly our favourite climb in the Cold Dark North - beautiful bathed in sunshine brutal on a wet and windy day - it's never very steep but always testing and rewards you with a brilliant descent down to Tatham Fell and Bentham to the North

Having recently been over Cross O Greet from both side in the last couple weeks coming from the Dunsop Bridge side is more enjoyable although not as hard as coming at it from the North. I found coming from the North really hard but it was a great sense of achievement getting up and over.
I’d go as far to say, coming at it from the South, is my favourite climb.
