- A walk up to two Wainwright fells in the Lake District, Cold Pike (701m) & Crinkle Crags (859m)
The walk starts from the top of the Wrynose Pass at the Three Shires Stone.
There is room for around 6 or 7 cars at the top of the pass so it is advisable to start early to get parked.
From the top of the pass we follow the clear path towards Cold Pike.
Before reaching Red Tarn we head left across a faint grassy path towards Cold Pike. The path soon reaches the summit of Cold Pike.
After enjoying the views from Cold Pike we drop down to the clear path leading up to Crinkle Crags. The views heading to the summit of Crinkle Crags are superb. We take the path heading around the back of Crinkle number two up to the summit (859m) After enjoying the fantastic views from the summit of Crinkle Crags we then re trace our steps back down to the Wrynose Pass. A superb walk up to the summit of Crinkle Crags.
Distance is around 6 miles.

@@eddiecaisley5746 Eddie at 14.48 there is a fabulous view of the Scafell's . Is there any way you can take out the freeze frame as a still photo and send it to me please?.... I have been wanting to print out a photo of this quality and have it enlarged for my lounge wall. Just for my personal use, nowt commercial like....
@@MountainZulu Hi Vince. I will see what I can do.
@@MountainZulu Hi Vince, if you send Carol your email address by messenger, I will send you a couple of photos. Cheers. Eddie.
Nice video Eddie! Thanks for showing me!
Thank you. It was a great day with superb views, made even better by the great weather. Thanks for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Wonderful video! So lucky with the weather and looks a superb walk in the fells … 🤗
Thanks. It was a great walk with superb views. The weather certainly helped, we had a great day. Thanks for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Smashing walk there Eddie. Proper fell walking country by the looks of things. A lovely day with stunning views. What's not to like? I'm hoping to get up soon and do the Grasmoor walk again that you did a video of while back. I fell in love with that view over Crummock Water/Buttermere from Rannerdale Knotts, the bluebells will be a bonus. Thanks for posting always a pleasure to watch.
Thanks David, it was a brilliant walk with superb views. We will definitely be doing this again. The weather made the day even better. The Grasmoor walk you are planning to do is another superb walk with great views. Thanks again for watching and commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Another terrific video Eddie, love the look of the walks you did. It's on our wishlist for our September trip. All the very best, David and Sue 👍
Thanks David, it is a great walk with stunning views all the way. We both really enjoyed the day and it is definitely a walk we would do again sometime. Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care & Best Wishes to Sue & Yourself from both of us.
You certainly know how to pick the days Eddie you could go up all summer and struggle to get a better day ...I did hardknott and harter fell a couple of weeks ago and left this for better weather looks like you beat me to it .. quality as always hope you both enjoyed it ..ATB Andrew
HI Andrew, it was a cracking day, we couldn't ask for any better weather. We both had a great day and will definitely be doing this walk again. It was a great walk with superb views all the way. Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Did these a while ago while doing the Wainwright’s.
Great walk with cracking views. Nice one.
Hi Mike, we both really enjoyed this walk, as you say, cracking views. It is definitely a walk we will be doing again in the future. Thanks for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Another great video Eddie.
I did Cold Pike and Pike o Blisco from Three Shires last week. Loved it.
Hoping to get the Crinkles and Bowfell done soon. It was interesting to see the Bad Step on your video. In my mind I had it as smaller!
I think I might be giving that bugger a miss too haha!
Thanks for posting and best wishes to you and Carol.
Thanks Alan, it was a brilliant day in great weather. We both really enjoyed this walk and will definitely be doing this again. Believe it or not, our original plan for the day was to do Cold Pike & Pike O Blisco, but changed it to Crinkle Crags when we got there. You are right about the Bad Step, it is bigger than you think. The route up the Bad Step seems to be on the right side as you look up. The path we took around the back is a really good route up anyway. Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated and Best Wishes from us both. Cheers. Eddie
Great video Eddie, looks like a brilliant hike that mate. Looked like a lovely day. The views looked amazing all around, never been to them fells, but wouldn't mind giving them a go in the near future. Love the way you explain and navigate the route. Spot on mate. atb Mick 👍
Thanks Mick. It was a great hike, we both really enjoyed the day. The views were superb all the way, and the weather made it even better. It is definitely a walk we will be doing again. Thanks for watching and for the kind comments, it is really appreciated. It is good to get feedback like yours as I am always looking to see what people like or don't like about the videos. Thanks again. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Fantastic views up there Eddie, I prefer the route around the bad step as the views looking at Scafell and Eskdale are second to none! Cold Pike has been on my radar for a while as a place to wild camp in the future. Atb Anthony👍👍
Thanks Anthony. I agree with you, the views looking over to the Scafells were superb. A great walk with great views all the way. Cold Pike looked a great place to camp. You would get some great views from there. Thanks again for watching and commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Another fantastic video Eddie, super views and photographs everywhere. I'm not sure how it happens but you seem to have blue skies every time you are in the fells - I trust this good run lasts!! I hope Carol enjoyed the drive up Wrynose pass this time, it's definitely tight and narrow in places. Crinkle Crags is a real mountain classic which you made look easy but in misty conditions it would be a huge challenge as the drops looked very big. I think you've got Carol to do a bit of filming too, and you had some really nice walk pasts. I could do with a few tips!! Will be in touch soon, regards, Ashley
Thanks Ashley. It was a great walk in superb weather. I will try to work my magic with the weather for our meet up, ha! Carol was still not keen on the Wrynose Pass and was pleased when we got parked up. I agree with you, Crinkle Crags would be entirely different in poor visibility and is definitely one to do in good weather. I am trying out different things and ideas with the filming to see what works. Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care & speak to you soon. Cheers. Eddie.
Absolutely gorgeous views all the way around and I am going to have to get some of these summits knocked off here this year, not done one of them in the Langdale Valley yet. The paths looked real good to follow but like you, not keen on the 'bad step', so I would have circled around too. Good to see you got your usual sunny weather, last time I went out it was forecasted full sun from first, to last light - I was out for 5 hours and never saw it once! Cheers Alan
Thanks Alan. It was a really good walk, definitely one we will be doing again sometime. The paths were good all the way and the views were superb. It is a great area for walking with some really good walks. I think we hit lucky with the weather ( again, ha!) Thanks again for watching & commenting Alan, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
enjoyable watch Eddie...not been up those two for a few years
Thanks Steve, it was a cracking day with great views all the way. We will definitely be returning to these fells again. Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Nice one Eddie. My next wild camp up there perhaps. Whernside summit last week -6🥶Was ok in down bag though😁
Thanks Pete. It was a cracking walk with great views. It will be a great area to camp. I saw your Whernside video, you had a beautiful morning to wake up to. Cheers. Eddie.
Another excellent video Eddie . Doing these next week from ODG and after watching your video I'm really looking forward to it now . Hoping I get Caisley weather put a word in for me ha ha . Nice to see the 3 Shires Stone is back as well .
Thanks Ian, it was a cracking walk with stunning views all the way. The last time we did Crinkle Crags we went up from the ODG and did Bowfell aswell, coming back down The Band. I will see what I can do about the weather for you, ha! Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is always appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
@@eddiecaisley5746 thanks hope the weather's OK. Was thinking of descending via Hell Gill and Whorneyside Force .
@@SilvoTours Sounds like a good route down. It would be good to see the waterfall.
@@eddiecaisley5746 yes that's my plan . Been up and down the Band several times so thought I'd do something different
Stunning views Eddie and what a day for it 😎 I should know I was in the southern uplands on the same day just glorious . You must haven been there early to get parked there ? Atb Dave
Thanks Dave, it was a cracking day with great views all the way. I bet it was stunning in the Southern Uplands aswell when you where there. We got parked up just before 8am and there was already two cars there, so we were lucky to get a space. Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
👍.
Thank you.
I see the Three Shire Stone has been replaced and looks like a brand new stone, Is it made from Concrete, looks a bit too new, the old one was missing in 2019 when I was there last
Hi Dave. The previous stone was damaged in 2017. From what I can gather this is the same stone which has undergone a restoration. I may be wrong, but I think it is the same one. Cheers. Eddie.
Typical Caisley weather...,......,.. again!
Ha, we wouldn't have it any other way Alan. It was a cracking day. Thanks for watching. Cheers. Eddie.
