Hi Matt. UA-cam served up your video after I was researching the Greenburn Round. We base a lot of walks around Grasmere so this looks ideal. My wife is not good with scrambling and edges so some research of routes is required (and my track record has not been great) to make sure it meets the requirement! Thanks for taking the time to put this together and posting. This is the first of your videos I have watched but I found the format VERY useful, particularly the route overview at the end with maps; something that is often missing from other videos. As a result, you have anew subscriber. I see that you post your GPX tracks to Outdooractive so I have followed you there. After watching your video, I think this walk is added to my list as apart from the boggy ground, there doesn't seem to be any dangerous edges or scrambling. Thanks again!
Thanks for the comment and sub Martyn, good to hear you've took something from the video, Really good walk this and one of my favourite in the Lakes apart from the bogs, nothing dangerous on this one so your wife will be fine, The gpx is linked on most of my routes and if you see me make any mistakes i mention in the summary you can always change up slightly, i always put the gpx up as a guide rather than gospel, enjoy your walk when you go mate 👍👍
Great video thank you. I made a m8stake last week thought I could leap over a bog. Needless to say I didn't exactly leap and landed short of the dry bit. My God the mud!
Cheers Gary, here's my track from the Fairfield HS out.ac/IIbO9V I did the greater version with Stone Arthur added on and it took around 6hr40m, you probably would take an hour off doing the tradition version👍
Gorgeous scenery my friend! Shots and views are gorgeous here!
Thanks mate, it has some lovely views on that walk 👌
