ヘイズウォーターでののおすすめランニングルート

Amazing views at the top on a good day, throughly enjoyed the run to top, Stoney paths

High street is the summit of a very wide ridge. Beware it gets incredibly windy up there - don't forget gloves and layers, in particular from October through April ! On a clear day, you will get superb views over: the Pennines; The Helvellyn range and the Southern Fells. First used by the roman for defense; the Ridge is the highest roman road in Britain. In the 18th and 19th century; the wild plateau was used for local fairs. Stray sheep would be returned to their owners and horses would be raced on the ridge ! I personally used this ridge for an 8 miles walk taking in Mardale Ill Bell, High Street and Kidsty Pike. You could take in 2 further wainwrights with very little efforts: The Knott and Rampsgill Head. And if you are into Long Distance walking: there is full south-to-north traverse of the High Street ridge from Ings near Windermere to the Eamont valley at the northern end of Ullswater stretching 19-mile and taking in 12 summits.

As the highest point in the far eastern fells the views are stunning when the weather is good.

A good place place to stop for a pint after walking

A dangerous place to be.pick your day.carefully

Good path's but steep in places

Sadly the pub is currently closed and has been for some time. Don't pin your hopes on a post walk pint!

Brilliant 360 degree views from the summit make this hill a good objective, but for a fuller mountain day the quieter but longer path over the Snarker Pike ridge is recommended rather then just a quick up and down from the Kirkstone pass
