Castle Crag

"If a visitor to Lakeland has only two or three hours to spare, poor fellow, yet desperately wants to reach a summit and take back an enduring memory of the beauty of the district.....let him climb Castle Crag."
A.W Wainwright

Although the lowest of the Wainwright Fells Castle Crag makes a wonderful shorter walk, the woodlands surrounding Castle Crag were described by Wainwright as 'the loveliest square mile in Lakeland'.

The lowly fell has much to offer, spectacular views over Borrowdale and Derwent Water, Caves, quarries, ancient woodlands, streams, waterfalls, rivers and a war memorial on the summit.
