点评:Having climbed just under 50 wainwrights you always weigh up which ones are the best and try to decide on a favourite. I must admit, I struggle to decide on my favourite but I thought Walla Crag was worth a review as it always seems to come in second best to Catbells. The views over Keswick are very similar except you are on the eastern side of Derwent Water as opposed to the western side.
In many ways, this one is easier to climb too as there are less scrambles and the distance from Keswick town centre is shorter too. I don't know why this peak doesn't get as much love as Catbells. I suppose I shouldn't complain too much as it also means that Walla Crag gets less of a crowd.
I thought this one was worth mentioning because it does seem to live in the shadow of its more popular sister across the water and I think it deserves some credit.
When we climbed it, the weather was pretty grim, as you can see in the photo but we still had a lovely time.
翻译:攀登过近50座温赖特山峰之后,你总会权衡哪些山峰最棒,并努力选出最爱。我必须承认,我很难决定最爱哪一座,但我认为沃拉山(Walla Crag)值得一提,因为它似乎总是屈居卡特贝尔斯山(Catbells)之后。从这里俯瞰凯西克(Keswick)的景色与卡特贝尔斯山非常相似,只是沃拉山位于德文特湖(Derwent Water)的东岸,而不是西岸。
在很多方面,沃拉山也更容易攀登,因为攀爬路段较少,而且距离凯西克镇中心也更近。我不明白为什么这座山峰不如卡特贝尔斯山那样受人喜爱。我想我不应该抱怨太多,因为这也意味着沃拉山游客较少。
我认为沃拉山值得一提,因为它似乎一直活在隔水相望的卡特贝尔斯山的阴影之下,我认为它应该得到应有的赞誉。
正如你在照片中看到的,我们攀登沃拉山的那天天气很糟糕,但我们仍然度过了一段美好的时光。
