walking and (occasional optional) scrambling

Seasons

Suitable all-year round, but winter walking, even on the lower fells, is not for the inexperienced Read More... or under-equipped.

Centres

Keswick, Grange-in-Borrowdale, Rosthwaite, Seatoller, Buttermere, High Lorton, Cockermouth, Read More... Braithwaite and Stair

Difficulty

Straightforward, short ascents, often not on clear paths, to be used as a basis for readers’ own Read More... circuits. Navigational skills needed but no specialist equipment. Any scrambling is easy and non-scrambling options are always provided.

Must See

Borrowdale, Buttermere and Bassenthwaite; Captivating Catbells, mighty Grasmoor, enticing Causey Read More... Pike and invigorating Grisedale Pike, handsome Hindscarth and bold Robinson; a succession of fine airy ridges and craggy little heights

‘The acknowledged successor to Wainwright, Richards has lovingly researched routes of ascent (and often more importantly safe descent) to 29 north-western fells.

Where he scores over AW is the variety of choices for ascent…for regular Lakeland fell addicts the routes suggested offer some interesting meanderings which better explore the inner fell secrets only found away from the tourist tracks.

The book is a good start for many happy fell-rangering days in those delectable fells between Buttermere and Derwentwater.'
