October 11, 2024,Middle Fell, Seatallan, Buckbarrow Round
After a tiring day up Scaffel Pike I edited an existing Komoot route to take us up and around here. A few steep climbs in the the first third of the walk but a great walk because of the long descent. Beautiful views over Wasdale and of some super cool rock formations. Nice to get off the tourist track!
Peak & Lake District Sojourn. Day 40.
Seatallan 692m, Wasdale Head, Lake District (Nuttall & 3 Wainwrights).
Seatallan 692m, Buckbarrow 423m and Middle Fell 582m.


Summary
After two days off (a first) I was hoping to do the Mosedale Horseshoe today with fresh legs but the weather forecast wasn’t a good one. A first reserve hike was a short one …
We had a few hours to spare after our morning trip to see the Bluebird K7 festival so did this shorter loop which ticked off 3 Wainwright's. The weather was pants, drizzle and lots of fog so pretty much no views at all 😶‍🌫️☹️
Seatallan - 691m
Middle Fell - 582m
Buckbarrow - 430m
A lovely wander around the Greendale Round with my parents who are up visiting from Lincolnshire ❤

We started the walk from the off-road parking area just to the east of where Greendale Gill meets the road. We hiked up Middle Fell first, a fairly steady pull up to the cairned summit which offers marvellous views to Scafell Pike across …
3 more wainwright’s done… 20 to go! I would of done more today but the 4 hour drive there, slippy boggy paths, freezing winds and 4 hour drive back killed my motivation 😅
