This guide describes ascents of 36 Lake District fells that can be
climbed from the valleys of Mardale (Haweswater), Kentmere and
Longsleddale and from the east side of Ullswater. With few
settlements, the area feels wild and remote, and the easternmost
fells in particular see few visitors, offering a perfect getaway
for walkers seeking solitude. Slightly further west lie some
fantastic ridge-lines, including the much-loved Kentmere Horseshoe
and High Street Roman road. Unlike other guidebooks which describe
a single or limited number of routes to a particular destination,
the aim of the Walking the Lake District Fells series is to offer
all the options. These are presented as numbered sections which can
be combined to create infinite possibilities - from simple ascents
to longer ridge routes. You'll find the classics and popular routes
alongside less traditional alternatives perfect for the wandering
spirit. The series gives you both the freedom to devise your own
routes and the information to make informed decisions, thanks to
the clear descriptions of the routes, terrain, hazards, interesting
features and safe descent paths should the weather close in. Also
included are a handful of classic ridge routes for longer fell
days. Mark Richards' inimitable text is complemented by HARVEY
mapping and the author's own beautiful sketch topos and panoramas.
Perfect for keen hillwalkers and peak-baggers alike and ideal both
for pre-planning and use on the hill, Walking the Lake District
Fells is the new incarnation of the Fellranger series, which sees
the volumes updated and trimmed to a more practical size. These
true connoisseurs' guides are sure to inspire you to get out and
explore the beautiful fells of Lakeland. For those collecting fell
summits, a 'Fellrangers' hill list register can be found on the
Long Distance Walkers Association website.
