Route
Legburthwaite east up the Sticks Pass path to the main ridge, out-and-back east to Hart Side, then north over Stybarrow Dodd, Watson's Dodd and Great Dodd to Calfhow Pike. Out-and-back north to Clough Head, then back to Calfhow Pike and down west to St John's in the Vale and Legburthwaite.
Dog hazards
Very dog-friendly grassy ridge; no rock on this line. Steep pull up Clough Head; exposed and very windy with no shelter in bad weather. Navigation hard in mist.
Scrambles
None (this line avoids Fisher's Wife's Rake on Clough Head, which is a scramble).
Water
Becks on the Coach Road and Sticks Pass; dry on the ridge.
Livestock
Sheep; fell ponies sometimes on the Coach Road.
