    Honister to Wasdale

    What's the quickest route from Honister to Wasdale on foot? Would it be the Moses Trod?
    And how long would it take at a slow plod?

    Appreciate any advice;-)

    Yep - Moses Trod is the quickest way on foot.
    A couple of hours at a slow plod.

    Another question, where do you pick up Moses Trod from the slate mine, do you set off to the right instead of going straight up?

    Cheers.

    Yes, follow the "drum house" path that goes straight as a die, due west up the hill, don't follow the "road" that goes WNW. Have fun Steve. Odd saying that "straight as a die" I mean dice aren't exactly straight are they???
