Grizedale - don't let the commercial nature put you off
Lets face it Grizedale is one of the most commercial places in the lakes attacting Londoners by the drove wanting to experience "The Lakes".
This gives great facilities but the "North Face" just touches the surface of what's available. If you like to explore or you have a local guide you can have a great time dropping down to the banks of coniston on epic trails and back up the hill for more awesomeness. Follow the waymarked trail and its average at best.
What do you like?
Easy access, lots to choose from, great views.
What could be improved?
Can be busy, VERY busy especially with city folk at peak times.
Signposted Bike trail isnt the best - go explore, get a OS map, ASK locals or get a guide.
My review is for the whole forest, not the north face trail.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
