About this walk
A knobbly little fell that punches well above its 355m height, tucked between St John's in the Vale and Naddle. Circuit takes in the ridge of small summits, the tiny valley church of St John, and a return along the beck. Quiet compared to the honeypot fells and superb in low winter light.
