Beyond the closed metal gate the National Trail enters open access moorland, on its long and lonely ascent towards the summit of Great Shunner Fell.
An intensive regeneration scheme for black grouse is being undertaken on this huge expanse of moor.
The Pennine Way

The Pennine Way is a National Trail in England, with a small section in Scotland. The trail runs 267 miles from Edale, in the northern Derbyshire Peak District, north through the Yorkshire Dales and the Northumberland National Park and ends at Kirk Yetholm, just inside the Scottish border. The path runs along the Pennine hills, sometimes described as the "backbone of England". Although not the United Kingdom's longest National Trail, it is according to the Ramblers' Association "one of Britain's best known and toughest".
