Naddle Horseshoe

Another chance to grab a walk in between visits south. Again we head to the eastern fringes of the Lakes to avoid the silly season crowds

We parked at Hazel Shaw and set out across Rosgill Moor

and walked across Harper Hills. Breeze ran all over them!

The, onto Powley's Hill and on to Hare Shaw in time for a bite to eat

and a power nap! The observant of you will notice Breeze is wearing a boot. Another case of wearing her feet out. She managed to do that in about twenty minutes at the Burton Dasset Hills last week.

That tongue again!

That's better.

Refuelled and rested, we head in the general direction of Haweswater 

To pick up the return path across Naddle Forest

The Heather is beginning to bloom

Haweswater as we reach Hugh Laithes Pike

The Cairn on Hugh Laithes Pike

From here we deviated from the normal Naddle Horsheshoe and took a route back through Naddle Farm and along the Haweswater service road through Frith Wood.
About 8.5 miles by the time we reached the car and the forecasted rain had arrived, pretty near perfect timing!
