Overview of the main lake bank
The trail runs along it
The tide levels are optimal
Mountains around the area
Few of the many trail water crossings
Past the lake, the trail starts to climb
On the right track!
This route makes an awesome mountain bike trail too
But I am sticking to foot for today!
The peak is actually higher than it looks
This dude keeps following me
Some of the steep uphills
Not to mention the long straights as well
With each step you take
But the views just gets better
I am in a Postcard!
That's Rydal lake below, where we initially came from
There's a surprise near the top
Not like we didn't know there's a cave up here!
The size is respectable, though not exaclty big
Shaun-cave, Cave-Shaun
Rydal cave was previously known as Loughrigg quarry
Oh little stepping stones, where do they lead to?
Hang loose!
Strange sign outside with some serious-looking words.
Well lets find out!
With the many granite deposits found at the top...
that means many other caves around the area too!
Despite being way much smaller, it looks like a crawl in
not mention, not as deep
But it's quite inaccessible
With a steep drop by the cave entrance
There's another baby cave not too far off
Our return saw a walk down a nicely forested cobble path
It was a clunky, noisy walk
Rydal lake from the path
The place is real breezy!
Trees playing dead
The lake at sunset
Enjoying the moment.. nice!
This sunset view is priceless
Chilling out by the lake bank
One with nature
You can never get tried of these views
This creepy guy is still following me!
Embarking on the journey back
Farewell Rydal!
For a chill out at the local pub!
With local steak. :P
For a well deserved meal! Cheers!
