Glaramara is a 783 m Wainwright in the southern fells, above Borrowdale. A long, knobbly fell of many tops above Seathwaite and Rosthwaite, more interesting underfoot than the height suggests. A usual day starts from Seatoller and takes about 5–7 hours. This guide grades it moderate, judging distance and steepness in fair summer conditions. Read a mountain forecast before a high fell, and turn back if the ridge is in wind, cloud, or ice.
