This excellent route is a good one for the summer holidays because it is always quiet and access from the M6 is easy. It is also a good one to do in dry weather because it can experience wet ground conditions in parts although the initial climb up to the Carrock Hill fort is a stony scramble and the return leg is a blast along the valley track. Fells bagged are Carrock Fell, High Pike, Knott, Gt Calva and the descent from Great Calva to the track to Skiddaw House is a very enjoyable fast sheep-trod.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
