Overview

We will make our way up to Easedale Tarn, then on to lonely Codale Tarn along mainly rocky but obvious paths. From Codale Tarn, we have a final push up to our objective of the day - Tarn Crag - with fantastic views over Easedale and down to Grasmere.Β  From there, we will drop steeply down to Far Easedale and make our way back to Grasmere. The route throughout is on rocky paths with some boggy parts and on our way up to Codale Tarn, there is a small section of hands on scrambling. There will be the option of heading up to Belles Knott on the way to Codale Tarn which only involves a very short detour. Although this walk is marked as strenuous, it will be taken at a moderate pace.
