Coniston Old Man: Private Guiding
"A summit deserving of detailed exploration and rewarding visitors with very beautiful views. Rank Bowfell amongst the best half-dozen." |
A.Wainwright

Coniston Old Man is one of the most famous and popular mountains in the Lake District and until 1974 was the highest peak in Lancashire, when Cumbria was formed.
Another popular connection is the link between the Coniston Old Man and Arthur Ransome's Swallows And Amazons books, where The Old Man of Coniston was known by the children as Kanchenjunga.
Let our experienced instructors show you some of the history of this area of the Lakes and take you on a wonderful guided fell walk around the Coniston Fells.
