Stone Arthur and Great Rigg Walk

While not every fell on the Stone Arthur and Great Rigg Walk is a popular peak to summit, the rugged terrain and scenic views overlooking Grasmere make this a pleasant day walk that can be enjoyed by outdoor enthusiasts of most skill levels. Setting out from the roadside parking area, you will make your way west along Greenhead Gill before climbing up the steep hillside to reach the summit of Stone Arthur. Continue along this elevated trail to the northeast, where you will receive some stunning views of the surrounding Lake District from atop Great Rigg. From this point, you will head south across the summit of Heron Pike, descending the hillside to visit the charming shores of Alcock Tarn on the return back to the trailhead where you started.
