As one of the most distinctive peaks in the charming North Western Fells of the Lake District, hikes to Hopegill Head are utterly delightful. A pointed, rocky peak when seen from the east and north, it is a superb objective and a part of the popular Coledale Round. Its most conspicuous feature, Hobcarton Crag, dominates the valley of the same name and is seen beautifully from nearby Grisedale Pike.

Views for days! Surrounding peaks include Grisedale Pike, Grasmoor, Whiteside and Ladyside Pike. Hopegill Head can be climbed as part of the Coledale Horseshoe, or (my preference) over Ladyside Pike. It's a 2,530-foot (770 m) mountain that appears really sharp and pointy when viewed from the north west.

I would recommend to plan Whiteside Summit walk clockwise. If you do it anticlockwise it will be challenging descend. It can be very dangerous in wet conditions.

Did Hopegill Head as part of the Grasmoor Round so came across from Whiteside. This is a lovely ridge to walk to bag Hopegill and the views are tremendous, even though it was not such a good weather day today. I will do it again but come up from Grisedale Pike. Hopegill Head is also a UK designated Nuttall.
