Hi Everyone
Welcome back to another video in the Lake District.
An adventure with a difference this time. A nice circular walk in the Swindale area, but this time it was split up with a wild camp on Grey Crag.
I was again joined by my good mate Mossy of @Walkingwildcampinguk fame, so please go and check out his channel for loads of cool video's and I'm sure there will be one of this walk.
We parked the car at a small car park on Swindale Lane, just before the green and white Cumbria City Council sign saying no parking after this point. Grid Reference is NY 521 142.
The route takes us up on the lane for just under a couple of miles before we head off up the hill on to the Old Corpse Road heading for the Wainwrights of Selside and Branstree.
Leaving Branstree we head down to the col between Mosedale and Longsleddale. Here we continue up the hill to the 3rd Wainwright of Tarn Crag, with its significant feature of it's summit the old survey pillar from the construction of the Haweswater Aqueduct.
Leaving Tarn Crag we cross the very boggy Greycrag Tarn before arriving at our final peak of the day of Grey Crag itself. Here we got the packs off our bags and set up our tents for the evening for a lovely summit wild camp.
If you are interested in doing this route then below is a link to the route in OS maps

Enjoy the video and stay tuned for part two shortly.
All the best and happy hiking
