The Wainwrights: A Journey Across the Lake District Fells

From Castle Crag to Scafell Pike: Your Guide to the Ultimate Lakeland Challenge.

To walk the Wainwrights is to truly know the Lake District. Following in the footsteps of Alfred Wainwright, this collection of fells takes you from the gentle, heather-clad slopes of the Loweswater Fells to the rugged, rock-strewn heights of the Scafells. It isn’t just a list of summits; it’s an invitation to explore every corner of Cumbria—the quiet valleys, the sharp ridges, and the panoramic views that have inspired hikers for generations.

Whether you are a seasoned "bagger" closing in on your final peak or a weekend wanderer looking for your first summit, each fell offers a unique character and a different perspective of the National Park. Use our guides to track your progress, discover the best ascent routes, and find the most rewarding vistas in England’s high country.
