Our drawing of the route — the shape of the walk, not a navigation aid. Carry OS Explorer on the hill. Off-lead information here is what walkers reported or what signage allows — never our advice. Whether and when a dog is off the lead is the owner’s decision and legal responsibility; keep dogs under control near livestock and follow signs on the day.

Directions to the start →

A two-mile circuit of rough common on the low fells north of Ulverston, between Lowick Green and the Crake valley, with open pools, bracken and outcrops of slate. Cumbria Wildlife Trust publishes the reserve as dogs on a lead. There are no grazing animals here, but the paths are uneven, rocky and steep in places, wet all year and heavily overgrown with bracken by August, and there is open water on the site. Parking is a stretch of verge, so it never takes more than two or three cars.

THE SMALL PRINTCumbria Wildlife Trust publishes the reserve as dogs "On a lead". Uneven, rocky and steep paths, wet ground and open water pools on the site.
