Gowbarrow Fell - Ascents

Ascents

The most usual routes of ascent begin from the Aira Force car park. Green Hill can be climbed from near to the waterfall, followed by a traverse northward across the summit plateau. An alternative route follows a terraced path around the south of the fell to Yew Crag and then ascends northward to an old shooting box. The final climb to the summit is very marshy. Access from the north can be gained at Todgill or Dockray. A longer walk can be made by traversing the full ridge from The Hause.
