Tips

Hiking

Snailsden Pike End is situated high on the grouse moors above Winscar and Snailsden reservoirs. You can access the trig from either, with the shorter and easier route being from near Snailsden reservoir where there is a small layby to park in. Coming up from Winscar it's a longer climb along Snailsden Edge before following a faint path off through the heather. The site is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest and there is a sign on the Snailsden gate saying dogs aren't allowed.

Hiking

Be sure to wear appropriate footwear for this one! The moors get very boggy.

Running

High on the boggy grouse moors, Snailsden trig point is accessed just off the main path. The moors can be very wet so make sure you have waterproof footwear, and the mist can roll in quickly.
