Lake District Ridge Walks & Scrambles: Challenging high-level routes in the Lake District

The Lakeland Fells have some of the finest ridge walks in the country. Exploring these ridges offers fell walking at its most satisfying - staying high, taking in several summits and enjoying the spectacular settings.

Many of the Lake District’s ridge walks have become classics, like the grassy edges of the Fairfield and Kentmere Horseshoes, or rocky aretes of Striding Edge and Swirral Edge and the aptly named Sharp Edge of Blencathra.
