  • Green Crag is a relatively low peak to the south of Eskdale and surrounded by moorland and bog except for a rocky ridge heading north. This 8 mile walk takes in Low Birker Tarn, Birker Force, Green Crag as well as 3 other subsidiary peaks to the north on the descent back to Eskdale.

    Great video Joe. I did these hills on a Birkett bagging expedition from the Birker Fell Road. The navigation along the Green Crag ridge was tricky and a lot height lost to Kepple Crag which had to be regained to get back to the car. The route from Eskdale seems a more natural route. Thank you.

      Ive wanted to do it from Birker Fell Road too as there are a few Birketts I need to do west of Green Crag so maybe sometime soon I will get that way too!

      Thanks! Not likely to see anyone on this walk probably one of the quietest peak in the lakes!

      @@WalkingintheWildwithJoeJackson ​ @Walking in the Wild | with Joe Jackson I like the quiet! Is the path easy to follow? I think 5 hours is too long though, I'm breaking in a small dog. Are there any nearby wainwrights that are shorter ~3hrs ? Thanks for your help!

      Such a stunning place! First time I stayed in the valley but only visited a couple of times in the past. Definately going back!
