A steep assent to start with which can be challenging depending on your fitness.
The section between Castle knott and Calf top was a little wet and boggy. This could i expect get quite challenging after long periods of rain.
Once you are on the top the views are rewarding. The hard work has been done and the long slope down to the road is quite easy going.
The last section is quiet narow roads which make the walking easy.
We waked the road section of the A683 to go to the pub. This apparently had been closed for a while. This could be avoided by the footpath section by the river Lune.
A stop off at the Barbon Inn was a welcome stop for a cold beer.
