Walking the Lake District Fells - Coniston
Cicerone Press (Verlag)
978-1-78631-039-2 (ISBN)
Cicerone’s Walking the Lake District Fells guides are your ultimate fell-by-fell companions to the Lake District fells. A series of eight guidebooks, one for each of the main valley bases, each guidebook covers ALL the fells and ALL the routes in the area – that’s 230 fells in total.
This guidebook covers 24 Lakeland summits accessible from Coniston and the Duddon and Eskdale valleys.?Fells like Coniston Old Man, Dow Crag, Wetherlam and Swirl How are much loved for their classic ridges and wide-reaching views, however, to the west, the quieter summits of the Birker and Corney Fell massifs offer more great mountain and maritime vistas.
Ideal both for pre-planning and use on the hill, keen hillwalkers will find all the info needed to climb the fells with confidence, plus a fresh perspective on both classic and lesser-known fells. If you’re a summit-bagger you can use our tick lists to check off the fells as you climb them.
What sets these guidebooks apart from the rest?
Complete coverage – every route covered, not just the main one.
Devise your own routes – a variety of ascents, descents, and ridge routes, so you can choose to climb one fell or combine routes to craft your own adventure.
Up-to-date route information – complete route description and HARVEY mapping for each fell.
Hand-drawn topos and panoramas – easily see the routes up each fell and views from the top.
Fell-friendly routes – designed to minimise environmental impact.
In 1980 Mark Richards began his three-part guide to the Peak District for Cicerone Press. He later moved to Cumbria and, after 14 years' dedicated research, completed his series of Lakeland Fellranger guides covering the entire region. He has also written a guide to Hadrian's Wall Path.
