Overview

From Peter House Farm we take the Cumbria Way (CW) path passing Dash Falls. We continue on the CW  until we reach Dead Beck where we turn North East and ascend  to the summit of Great  Calva. From here we take the path that heads north across boggy ground (towards Knott), we eventually turn West and take the path through a narrow pass beside Hause Gill. We continue west traversing under Great Cockup and Little Cockup until we meet the Orthwaite Road. We turn south and follow the road a short distance back to Peter House Farm.
