Wainwright's- North Lake District Fells

Listed here are a popular selection of Wainwright Fells based around Caldbeck. These are the most northern of all the Lake District Fells.
No trip to Caldbeck is not complete without a walk up the nearest mountain! High Pike is a 3 mile hike to the summit going straight from the barns in the village centre. Just follow the Cumbrian Way all the way to the top and take in the fantastic views all around. Allow a good 3 hours to reach the top and return back.

This pleasant fell is a 10 minute drive to the start of a nice walk. Nice grassy slope to the summit gives fantastic views across to Bassenthwaite Lake. Maps are available if required. Just past the village of Uldale either do it before or after a visit to Mae's Tearoom & Art Gallery.

This is not too far from Caldbeck (20-25 minutes) and is very nice walk to the summit (Dodd summit) There is plenty of parking space, toilets and a café. Situated amongst a forest this is an ideal walk if it's windy or a bit wet as it's quite sheltered.
