Spy : In Skelghyll wood look out for red squirrels, enormous trees and – in winter – glimpses of the lake through the trees.

There are various small peaks and crags on the summit of the hill and you will soon reach the first, flat-topped, view point.With its turrets and towers and jackdaws keeping watch over its wooded grounds, it’s a wonderfully atmospheric place to explore at the end of the walk.
