LAKES - AA27 - Swirl How
Brilliant walk. We did this with Fiona and Gary. Long steep walk up to the start of the Prison Band walking through or around an old copper mine. The marked track out of the copper line does not seem to exist so work way around. Prison band is basically a scramble. A climb quite fun but longer than others on other walks. From the top of prison band a lovely flattish ridge walk to the top of the Old Man. Eventual descent is via long and steep stairs.
