Bowfell and Angle Tarn in Great Langdale

Langdale is a beautiful part of the Lake District and certainly a favourite of brasher's Product Manager, Philippe Galland.

He can not only practice rock climbing with his wife and friends, but also enjoy scrambling or walking.
His choice in September was one of the classic walks to do.
Starting at the Old Dungeon Gill and taking you to Bow Fell via "The Band." The effort is worth the view in good weather.


A nice gentle gentle slope with amazing scenery will take you down Ore Gap. At this point the landscape changes again. Finally, after a rapid descent there is a chance to appreciate one of the most pretty lakes-Angle tarn-giving another dimension to this walk.
The footpath turns into a steep downhill back to the starting point.

The walk is around 8 miles with a fair amount of ascent close to 3000ft. It will take you around 6 to 7 hours to complete.
