Surprise View is just that, you walk through some thin woodland and suddenly the trees end and the ground drops away at your feet to reveal a splendid view of Derwent Water, Skiddaw, and a glimpse of Bassenthwaite Lake in the distance. It's dangerous if you go too near the edge as there is a sheer steep drop to the valley floor below. I'm surprised they haven't put railings up but I sincerely hope they never do. It would spoil the effect and the view. And images like this could never be taken again.
