Great Dodd - Ascents

Ascents

Great Dodd can be climbed from Dockray, or from further up Aira Beck at High Row or Dowthwaitehead, although parking here is limited. Either branch of the north east ridge can be ascended directly, or Mosedale can be followed up to Calfhow Pike at its head. All of these routes are abominably wet underfoot until Randerside or Calfhow Pike is reached. The car park at Legburthwaite provides the best access to the west, and from here any preferred route can be followed up the pathless grassy slopes.
