Route Description for Dove Crag via Kirkstone Pass Walk

The Dove Crag via Kirkstone Pass Trail is a wonderfully scenic walking route that is popular with Lake District adventurers thanks to the well-maintained paths and sweeping views across the undulating terrain. While out on this walk, you will climb up the steep hillside of Red Screes and continue to the northwest to traverse Little Hart Crag and Dove Crag, all the while enjoying breathtaking views of the surrounding fells and lakes.
