Green Crag is a 489 m Wainwright in the southern fells, above Eskdale. A small rough fell at the back of Eskdale, beyond Harter Fell, on the way toward the Dunnerdale fells. A usual day starts from Boot and takes about 4–6 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.
