This scramble is hidden behind the campsite at Grange in Borrowdale. It's a beautiful spot and a very quiet route. It certainly gets you away from the crowds for a couple of hours and is a real hidden gem. We only saw one other person and that was on the walk down!
The difficulties vary a lot depending on the line you take. There is something for everyone as long as you can read the ground well and know what you're doing. The route takes a couple of hours and really would seem to need dry conditions to be done - the line we took would be iffy with more water. The difficulties are broken up by pleasant rock hopping and easily bypassed if you're not feeling up to it.

It’s the back end of summer, but more importantly at the end of a dry spell. At this height up a river the levels rise and fall pretty fast. I’d be careful of your group mix up here. There is definitely some areas where non-climbers would find it hairy. It’s really rather slippery in some key areas too so experience with that would be good. You can walk most difficulties though. Cat Gill on Walla Crag goes at I/II and may also be worth a look (same cautions, more parking).
