Unthank Farm, Hutton-
The most popular walk starts from Keswick and first ascends behind Latrigg, before the climb continues over the slopes of Little Man to the summit. This walk can be made considerably easier by driving to the top of Gale road and beginning from the public carpark just behind the summit of Latrigg.
