| The Route: |
We will walk the short distance from Sergeant Man to the summit of High Raise, a great viewpoint in the centre of the Lake District with a stunning panorama of almost all the Lakeland Fells.
A short walk will bring us onto the path that descends over Tarn Crag, a rocky summit with views over Grasmere and down to Easdale Tarn. The descent from Tarn Crag will bring us down to Easdale Tarn and the path alongside Sour Milk Gill, a procession of waterfalls descending into the Easdale valley where we will follow the track back to Grasmere.
