A visit to the Lake District would not be complete without at least one walk to the top of a big hill. What with spouse and I not being regular users of shanks pony least of all up mountains I asked around for recommendations for a novices hill climb. Cat Bells was suggested and did not disappoint. This mini mountain sits near Derwent Water, close to Keswick. Described by Alfred Wainright as a, “…family fell where grandmothers and infants can climb the heights together”. Sounded doable.
