From the car park at the front of the old Keswick station, beside the leisure centre and swimming pool, face the station buildings and turn left.

This tarmac track weaves its way through the north eastern suburbs before reaching the tunnel under the A66. Go through the tunnel to then cross three bridges over the River Greta.

Just before the fourth, at the information boards and small open building, turn left through the gate and cross the field to another gate onto the minor Brundholme road. Turn left again and continue up the road.

Near the end of the public road go round to the left and then go through the gateway on the right.

Keep right on the track onto the end of the eastern ridge of Latrigg.

Follow the track ahead then soon turning left onto Latrigg's eastern ridge. Go through an open gateway along side some woodland, and then shortly after as the track bears gently right, you need to bear left to remain on the ridgeline.

Follow the well spread out 'path' around the edge, through the gate, and onto the gravel path to the summit area.

Continue on the gravel "Limited Mobility" path to the viewpoint overlooking Keswick and Derwent Water.

Descend Latrigg by carrying on along the path to the sign post in a small gully. Take the left fork onto the wide track to join the bridleway on the edge of Gale Ghyll Woods where you turn left heading for Keswick. When the track forks left into the woods keep right to remain on the bridleway. At the bottom of the hill there are signs warning of "Hens in lane". Cross the A66 over the bridge, and at the end of the lane turn left.

The road narrows but has an off road footpath alongside, bear right and continue down to the roundabout. Go straight over to the car park and back to the start.
