Hiking
The main path that follows the ghyll is a bit rocky with some big steps but it’s not climbing and suitable for all ages. Kids love the scramble and reaching the tarn at the top is a great target.
The National Trust have a hydroelectric scheme about half way up the valley which provides the power needed to run the Sticklebarn pub.
