​23rd December 2012 - Parlick & Fair Snape Fell

Walk Details

​Distance walked: 3.9 miles

Total ascent: 1204 ft

OS map used: OL41 - Forest of Bowland & Ribblesdale

Time taken: 2 hrs

Route description: Fell Foot-Parlick-Fair Snape Fell-Parlick-Fell Foot

With the forecast for the next few days looking really poor I decided that I had to take advantage of the dry weather this afternoon to stretch my legs. 

A very simple there and back walk straight up the front of Parlick and on to Fair Snape Fell with the return by the same route.

Fair Snape Fell. It's very windy. If it wasn't for the shelter that's up here I would have headed straight back down.
