Description

The Lake District's rich mix of rocks, gills and crags offers the scrambler a complex variety of routes, often well removed from the beaten track.

Scrambling - ascending rock that is not usually difficult or steep enough to warrant the term 'rock climbing' - means you often hardly touch a path and rarely see other people at close quarters.

This is a way of getting back to a wilder Lakeland and enjoying the freedom of rough mountain country.

  • 126 scramble routes graded 1 to 4
  • Advice on how to approach scrambling safely and with confidence
  • Overview maps as well as sketch diagrams of the crags and routes
  • Introductions to each area mentioned, indicating the type of rock and any recommendations
