Suffering from dried and cracked lips from the outset due to too much time outdoors (yeah, like that's a thing!) I decided it was about time I went back up Great Gable as it's been a while. But this time from Honister Pass and via Grey Knotts, Brandreth and Green Gable.
Thinking I had stacks of time at sunrise I ambled across the beautiful bleak landscape towards Great Gable and then over to Fleetwith Pike where I wanted to wait for sunset. However, the clock changes the week before meant that daylight began to run out very quickly; forcing me to run to Fleetwith Pike to get there before golden hour. But I got there, and sunset did not disappoint!
This area is by far the most beautiful and dramatic in the Lake District; a real feast for the senses and this route is highly recommended.
