    Hiking

    A local Cumbrian legend states that in order to repel the encroaching Romans, local Picts invoked a giant named Patrick who swam across the Irish sea and hiked up the hills to assist the Pictish defenders. Unfortunately, the story goes that the giant, upon reaching the Lake District, stopped to take a bath on Loughrigg Fell and lost his appetite for a fight and turned tail and went back to Ireland. This is said to be the spot where Patrick The Giant bathed.
