United Kingdom Grey Knotts, Western Fells
Grey Knotts stands above Honister Mine at the top of the pass between Borrowdale and Buttermere. As the name suggests its top is a collection of rocky knolls, grey in colour from the weathered Borrowdale Volcanic rock with a scattering of small tarns.
Photography Tips
Utilising the car park at the Honister Mine gives you a great starting point to scale the hills. Especially if you're only heading up for a sunset snap.
