Mellbreak


An afternoon walk having spent the morning around Whinlatter Forest and Cockermouth. We managed to park, luckily, at Loweswater village and walked passed the hotel to Mosedale. One option was to cross Mosedale and ascend Hen Comb but the beck was quite high and looking from above, not easy to cross. So we decided on a gentle scroll up the east side of Mosedale to an obvious path ascending to the col between the two tops of Mellbreak. Then on to the southern top. Glorious weather gave us great views across Crummock water to where we had been the previous day. Needless to say the northern top had to be visited before descending the same way we came up.
