The Lake District | Bowfell | Esk Pike | Allen Crags | Rossett Pike | 4 Waiwrights | Langdale Valley
This is an excellent walk in the beautiful Langdale Valley. This hike starts with an easy 2.5km valley walk before the ascent up to Rossett Pike. Once there, excellent views down Langdale Valley can be achieved.
We leave to head past Angle Tarn to Allen Crags. This is an easy walk and chance to gain our preath after the long up to Rossett Pike. Allen Crags opens up views to further valleys and is only a short walk from the main route.
Esk Pike beckons high above Angle Tarn. The walk up has a couple of rocky ascents and offers excellent views to the right of the climbs.
Bowfell is within easy walking distance from Esk Pike and has its own rocky climb before we make our way down to The Band and back to Old Dungeon Ghyll.

Been a very wet start to the year. Still great to get out into the fresh air and clean out the soul. Best wishes on the next adventure.

@trekkingwithtony Thank-you I will do xx
Brilliant video and hike. Perfect conditions and visibility and spectacular views everywhere. Why do I always get the most and rain?!! Our favourite place in the Lakes, and videos like this make us want to go back. Regards, Ashley

Hey Ashley, many thanks! It is fantastic if you can hit the weather window. It is one of The Lakes jems for sure. I've booked in for the camp site in summer so will have to take my chances so fingers crossed for sunny days ahead for us both!

Excellent Gary, welcome aboard. They are the wainwright guides. Full of information and easy to get hold of. I’ll put the map in the description for you 👍
Great video. I am looking to walk these 4 Wainwrights this Saturday and it has given me a great insight into what to expect. The Alltrails map has the route the other eay round, with Bowfell first. What is your opinion on this?

Thanks mate 👍. I do it this way around as the band is an easy down and Allison’s knees prefer that. I also like to walk the valley first to warm up and anticipate the climb and work my way up to Bowfell rather than do the biggest first. Both ways are good though. If I was going to do Bowfell first it would be to do the climbers traverse. Otherwise I’d do it as in the video. I’m glad it was useful to you, let me know how you got on. Enjoy it out there mate ⛰️😁🥾

@@trekkingwithtony thanks for the reply and advice. Think I might wake up Saturday and see how I feel after a night in the tent, first one of the year.
