A circuit of Gragareth, Green Hill, Great Coum and Crag Hill. After parking on the verge of the road up to Leck Fell House, I walked up to Leck Fell House, then onto the open fell up to Gragareth. From there I followed the ridge of high ground all the way round from Green Hill, Great Coum to Crag Hill. I then walked down the SW ridge of Crag Hill to Bullpot Farm. I then followed a footpath south along Ease Gill and Leck Beck before walking back up the road to Leck Fell House.
