    I did the MBR route above today and it was great!

    If you want a tad shorter route, then there is another one in this month's MBR that's 20km long

    The vertebrae graphics book has a few around Ambleside too
  • Thanks guys, i'll try the route out and look for the new route in this months MBR.

    I'd go up Jenkins Crag to top of Garbun pass, turn around and retrace your steps. Challenging.
