Lattrig, Lake District

Two of us were setting up tent on top of Lattrig at approximately 7pm. Some cows appeared and seemed interested and started coming over to investigate. The cattle started chewing on tent, which prompted us to leave, we managed to shoo the cattle out of the way and began to walk along the track downhill.

As we were walking down the hill the cattle all charged towards us, we shouted loudly and they stopped a metre before us. If we hadn’t shouted and made them stop I think they may have trampled us.

If you have an opinion you want to share, do let us know.
