14.36 miles, 2,574 feet, 4 hours 12 minutes: Ambleside to Lingmoor Fell top and back, going via Rothay Bridge, Clappersgate, Bog Lane, Skelwith Fold, Skelwith Bridge, Low Park, High Park, Stang End and Dale End both ways. Sunshine, blue sky, high clouds. No rain. An intermittent breeze from various directions - very refreshing. Terrain dry/hard/good grip. Very few people about; 1 runner seen.
Dale End Farm has home cakes and hot drinks available right next to the track, and all day parking for a fiver. High Park has a nicely situated tea area, but an aggressive dog, albeit on a long lead, was very off putting.
