About trip

The parking is near the pub in Far Sawrey. We walked into Near Sawrey (don’t be tempted to walk on the road) before taking the track to Moss Eccles Tarn. This is a popular place to walk with good reason – the views from the high ground are tremendous – but the further you get from Near Sawrey the fewer people you encounter. Near Sawrey gets pretty busy, as you can imagine, but its popularity means that there are plenty of places for a cup of tea (or a beer in the pub).

This is a lovely walk and was more open than I expected, given that much of the walk is through forested land.
