Caudale Moor (Stony Cove Pike) | Wainwrights Far Eastern Fells

CAULDALE MOOR

Caudale Moor, also known as Stony Cove Pike, is a prominent fell offering extensive views and a satisfying climb. The typical route begins in the village of Hartsop, ascending via the path to Hartsop Dodd before reaching the ridge leading to Caudale Moor. The terrain is a mix of grassy slopes and rocky patches, providing a moderate challenge suitable for most hikers. Upon reaching the summit, marked by a cairn and a shelter, you're rewarded with sweeping vistas. To the north, the rugged peaks of the Helvellyn range come into view, while to the south, the Kentmere Horseshoe unfolds in all its glory. The western aspect offers a stunning panorama over Windermere and the Coniston Fells. Caudale Moor's relative isolation means you'll often find yourself alone at the summit, allowing for a peaceful and contemplative experience. This fell is a delight for those who enjoy expansive views and a sense of remoteness.

WHERE TO STAY

Glenridding is a perfect base for a trip to this part of the Lake District. With easy access to Hartsop for this walk and easy access to Ullswater Lake for a nice evening stroll Glenridding has a lot to offer. Another benefit of basing yourself in Glenridding is the number of great places to eat. A personal favourite is the Orangery at the Inn on The Lake, however if you fancy a more laid back environment then head to the Ramblers Inn or Travellers Rest.
