I was staying in Rosthwaite at the Scafell Hotel. This walk starts and ends there so I had the pleasant experience of a driving free day. Right out of the hotel and north up the road a short way then right along the drive of the Hazel Bank Hotel. The path skirts the perimeter of the hotel grounds than heads up the fellside to Watendlath, an utterly delightful and pleasant climb. Reaching Wadentlath brought a measure of heartbreak as I had forgotten about the little teashop there wnd had neglected to carry any money with me. I watched the people happily sipping their tea with envy and longing then picked up the path south towards Stonethwaite. The main path passes the summit of Great Crag some way to the east but there is motre than one minor path on the ground to take you thereand it was easily reached. After that short detourv the maion path carries on past the beautiful, lonely Dock Tarn and then bend southwest to Lingy End where it falls very dramically and steeply through the woods towards Stonethwaite whence a patyh leads easily back to Rosthwaite. THis is a really delightful short walk.
