点评:Drove to Roseberry Topping early as I read that that the pay National Trust car park was small and busy. Thankfully we arrived around 10.30am and got one of the last car parking spaces. We wanted to stay for a while so the parking fee (by card , no cash) was £6.
The weather was amazing, clear blue skies and quite warm. I think we took the hardest way up which is mostly good steps, steep stone steps and gravel. It took us around an hour which isn't bad considering one of us is 72.
The views on the way up and at the top are spectacular, especially if you have your binoculars. It was very busy at the top. We walked a different way down which was steep steps then a more gentle slope in the middle and the final steep steps at the bottom , took around 50 minutes.
Because of the weather the whole place was really busy. Ice cream van and coffee van in the car park. The toilets were open and clean.
On the way out quite a few cars mustn't have been able to get parked in the car park and were parked on the double yellows on the road outside the car park. Two traffic wardens were busy ticketing all the cars, had to be in excess of 12 cars. This was a Sunday. So make sure you have alternative parking plans in case the car park is full
翻译:我很早就开车去了 Roseberry Topping,因为我看到说收费的国民托管组织停车场又小又挤。还好我们 10:30 左右到的,占到了最后几个停车位之一。我们想多待一会儿,所以停车费(刷卡,不用现金)是 6 英镑。
天气非常好,万里无云,而且很暖和。我觉得我们走的是最难上山的路,大部分都是好台阶、陡峭的石阶和碎石路。我们花了大约一个小时,考虑到我们其中一个人已经 72 岁了,这个时间还算不错。
上山的路上和山顶的景色非常壮观,尤其是如果你带着双筒望远镜的话。山顶上人很多。我们走了一条不同的路下来,先是陡峭的台阶,然后是中段比较平缓的斜坡,最后是山下最后的陡峭台阶,大约花了 50 分钟。
因为天气原因,整个地方都很热闹。停车场里停着冰淇淋车和咖啡车。厕所开放且干净。
在出口处,不少车肯定停不进停车场,停在了停车场外路边的双黄线上。两名交通督导员忙着给所有车辆开罚单,车子肯定超过12辆。今天是星期天。所以,一定要准备好备用停车方案,以防停车场满了。
