Castlerigg Stone Circle View all content for Castlerigg

Spent two very cold and very peaceful hours here this morning. Only a couple of hikers wandered through in that time. Sun shone through a 'Turner' sky, lighting up the snow covered tops of Skiddaw & her sisters. Too cold for tourists, though I suppose having travelled 100 miles to get here, I am one of those. My 4th visit, and can recommend turning up on a morning, and obviously out of season, if you want to just share this circle with the mountains & the sheep. One of the best sites for scenery I've been to, and today was no exception (until the snow arrived, and I beat a hasty retreat). A whole new meaning to the phrase 'chilled out' today.
