Map updated in 2024 by Martin Bagness. The Wansfell part is the SE facing slope on the Troutbeck side. There are steep contours, lots of marshy areas, some rock detail, ruined walls and streams. Skelghyll Woods has many paths, some high crags and rocky slopes, which can be slippy underfoot. Lots of technical detail here to give a complete contrast to Wansfell.
Given the exposed nature of the terrain, it may well be that cagoules will be compulsory, whatever the weather. In the unfortunate event of turning an ankle a long way from home, you need to keep warm.
The usual range of Galoppen courses will be available from Yellow to Brown. More details are available on the LOC website at https://www.lakeland-orienteering.org.uk/events.
Everyone who attends must follow the ‘Participation Codes of Conduct’ which can be found at the British Orienteering website.
