Skiddaw Summit via Jenkins Bridleway
Taking in the views from Little Man
Hiking to Skiddaw Summit & Little Man
Overview
Parking isnt great and you need to arrive early to have any chance of a parking space (the car park is small). Otherwise this was a fantastic hike with great views. We even managed to experience a cloud inversion.
After some early clag this cleared and its a pretty steep and brutal ascent. We took in Skiddaw little man also and recommend you tackle this afer summitting.
Key Hike Points
- Steep but rewarding ascent
- Cloud inversion at the summit
