After parking at the NT Stickle Barn car park I made my way up the road past the ODG and then past Wall End Farm before taking the path up to Pike o'Blisco. From there I made my way down to Red Tarn and then did the traverse of the Crinkle Crags. From Three Tarns I went to the top of Bow Fell and back down before heading back to Langdale by The Band.
