1 Haystacks
I've been up Haystacks on numerous occasions. It was the favourite Lake District fell of author Alfred Wainwright, and it's mine too
Top 10 Fell Walks
My Top 10 Lake District Fells walks as classified in the walking guides of Alfred Wainwright. The 214 fells are all over 1,000 feet in height with the notable exception of Castle Crag, which Wainwright included on account of its shapely mountainous appearance

2 Great Gable
One of the Lake Distric's classic fell walks, with an incredible view along Wast Water and Wasdale from the summit
3 Bowfell
Bowfell is set in a wonderful position at the head of the Langdale valley and the view from its summit offers spectacular views in all directions
4 High Stile Range
A wonderful ridge walk, combining three Lake District fells in one outing - Red Pike, High Stile and High Crag, collectively known as the High Stile Range
5 Grange Fell
Grange Fell in Borrowdale is a superb craggy little fell with three separate widely scattered tops – Ether Knott, Brund Fell and my personal favourite, King’s How
6 Place Fell
Superb views over Ullswater and its surrounding fells and valleys can be enjoyed during most of this route
7 Dale Head
Dale Head is at the head of Newlands Valley and offers a superb view from its shapely summit cairn
8 Rannerdale Knotts
Rannerdale Knotts is a rugged little fell and if walked in May there is the added bonus of seeing the spectacle of the Rannerdale bluebells
9 Lingmell
From the summit of Lingmell there are awe inspiring views over Lingmell Crags to some of the most dramatic scenery in lakeland
10 High Rigg
My favourite fell in the Central Lake District, with a walk along a knobbly ridge followed by a return through secluded St John's in the Vale
