Lakeland Fells

Although I've walked in many areas of the UK, Europe and elsewhere, the area closest to my heart is the Lake District and in particular the 214 Lakeland Fells as categorised in the classic Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells by the author and fellwalker Alfred Wainwright. These guides have inspired me on numerous adventures, and I've now completed the full round on two occasions, with multiple visits to many of my favourites, and around 1,200 summit visits in total. The series of seven books by Wainwright contains detailed descriptions of each fell, accompanied by hand drawn maps and illustrations. The guides were published between 1952 and 1966 and they are still an essential companion today for anyone setting off to walk on the Lakeland Fells

The Lakeland Fells range in height from Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England at 3,209 feet, to Castle Crag at 951 feet. Wainwright broke his own rule that a fell must be 1,000 feet or more so as to include Castle Crag due to its rugged appearance and prominent position in Borrowdale
