| | Scafell Pike from Langdale - Walk |
 | | Scafell Pike is invariably busy and if you want some peace and quiet, wander over the boulders to the south peak, and contemplate the relative peace of Eskdale, way down below (photo) and contemplate the routes to Scafell (photo) for another day. |
 | | The path to Esk Pike, roughly southeast, is clear (retrospective photo) but bypasses the summit by a few yards. |
 | | From here, to the east, The Band, with a fine view of Crinkle Crags (photo), and another of Pike o'Stickle and Loft Crag (photo), provides a well-worn and gradual crest-of-the-ridge descent to Stool End farm from whence the farm road and main road return you to the New Dungeon Ghyll. |
