Composed near the Mountain track that leads from Grasmere through Grisdale Hawes, where it descends towards Paterdale.

“Here did we stop; and here looked round, While each into himself descends.”

The point is two or three yards below the outlet of Grisdale tarn, on a foot-road by which a horse may pass to Paterdale–a ridge of Helvellyn on the left, and the summit of Fairfield on the right.
