Hartsop Dodd | Wainwrights Far Eastern Fells

HARTSOP DODD

Driving towards Hartsop Dodd from Patterdale the Fell imposes itself quickly upon the landscape. Rising sharply from the valley floor and overshadowing the stunning village that gave the Dodd it’s name, Hartsop, Hartsop Dodd obscures Cauldale Moor which lays behind. Perfectly positioned for views of Brothers Water and Ullswater on a clear day you can view the Ullswater Steamers pulling into Glennriding Harbour. The ascent to Hartsop Dodd is unrelenting in its steep approach and most route from the village remain very direct. Atop the Fell is a small Cairn, the perfect place to regain your breath before heading onwards to Cauldale Moor.
