Causey Pike

Grid Reference: NY 21876 20851
Height: 637 metres/2090 feet

"Deservedly this is a popular climb, with a heavy summer traffic, the route being quite charming, the views superlative, the finish a bit of real mountaineering, and the summit a place of distinctive character."
A Wainwright

The serrated summit ridge of Causey Pike is a prominent sight on the skyline from much of the Lake District, the steep flanks above the Newlands Valley are topped by a series of rocky summits, the highest of which being the easternmost top.

Causey Pike is often climbed as part of the Coledale Horseshoe, a fine high level horseshoe route from Braithwaite, although a good shorter circuit can be made from Stoneycroft, in the Newlands Valley, including the summits of Scar Crags, Outerside and Barrow.
