About Knottallow Hill

The walk up Knottallow Hill rewards you with proper views across Furness and out towards Morecambe Bay - the kind of panorama that makes the climb worthwhile without being a full-day affair. It's accessible from Dalton-in-Furness, so you're looking at a straightforward outing rather than a expedition into serious fell territory.

This is a decent choice for families who want something more engaging than a flat circuit but aren't ready to tackle the bigger Lakeland peaks. The summit itself isn't dramatic - no dramatic rock formations or scrambles - but the vantage point justifies the effort. On a clear day you get real distance in your views. Go in the morning if you can; afternoon light flattens it all.

Allow a couple of hours for the round trip, depending on your pace and how long you linger at the top. There's no particular challenge here, which means it suits mixed-ability groups well. The terrain is standard hill-walking stuff - nothing technical.

If you're based at High Haume Glamping or Old Park Wood Caravan Holiday Park, both within five miles, Knottallow Hill works as a morning or early afternoon break from camp. It's the sort of walk that gets restless teenagers away from their phones without demanding serious commitment. Pair it with a visit to Dalton-in-Furness itself - the town's got decent shops and cafes for afterwards - and you've got a solid half-day sorted.
