Barbondale Round

The Barbondale Round is a Long Distance Walkers Association event. The route went from Barbon, passed Bull Pot Farm, up Casterton Fell to Crag Hill and then onto Great Coum. It then skirted around the edge of Towns Fell, round the east and north of Middleton Fell and then up the 4.5 mile hill (distance, not height) to Calf Top, then onto Castle Knott and finally onto Eskholme Pike, before heading back down to Barbon. A nice 22 mile bimble. I took my time running around and even got chance to look at the view.

As you can see, there wasn’t a lot of competition…

There was no cake, but there was pie!

  1. An alternative is to start from the finish and head north over middleton fell, then down to the Sedbergh-kirby lonsdale road (by the pub, a good half way mak!) and then back via footpaths to barbon. A good bimble!
