Description
This guidebook describes 30 graded fell walks on the ridges and high peaks of the English Lake District, the UK's most popular national park. Reaching some of England's finest and highest mountain scenery, this guide leads readers to classic horseshoes and traditional ascents as well as lesser-known routes to quieter summits.
Seasons:
All year - each season holds its own delights - but walkers need to be prepared, and suitably equipped, for the potential for snow on the fells any time between November and April.
Centres:
Keswick, Braithwaite, Glenridding, Patterdale, Buttermere, Borrowdale, Ennerdale, Wasdale Head, Boot, Honister Pass, Coniston, Great Langdale, Grasmere, Ambleside, Kentmere.
Difficulty:
Fell walks covering both rocky terrain and grassy hills with occasional stretches of boggy ground. Most of the walks are relatively easy to follow in clear conditions, but may require good navigational skills in mist. Routes from 7-23km, graded 1-5. Some easy scrambling. Many routes require ice and crampons in snow.
Must See:
Climb England's highest peaks, including Scafell Pike, Sca Fell, Helvellyn and Skiddaw; stride out on classic horseshoe routes such as the Newlands Round and the Fairfield Horseshoe; enjoy quieter routes on to popular fells such as Blencathra and Red Screes; and visit some lesser known summits, including Gray Crag and Beda Fell.
