Scafell Pike

Scafell Pike, the highest peak in England and by far our most popular route.

We probably climb Scafell Pike more than almost anyone else (John climbed it 96 times in 2009 and more in 2010) so why not take advantage of this experience and let us take you up the pick of the routes.

Scafell Pike is also popular as a Private hire event for charity fundraising, training for The 3 Peaks Challenge and romantic proposals!

There are several routes climbing Scafell Pike, the most popual of these climb from Seathwaite and Wasdale Head, the Seathwaite route being our preferred option, giving wonderful views throughout across the whole of the Lake District, we usually climb by Sty Head and the Corridor Route giving a wonderful descnt by Esk Hause and back down the Grains Gill path to Seathwaite.

The route from Wasdale Head is a little shorter than from Seathwaite, but steeper with little respite as it climbs above Wastwater on a more direct route to the summit of Scafell Pike by Lingmell Col.

Scafell Pike can also be climbed from the Langdale Valley, this route climbs from Mickleden by Rossett Gill to Esk Hause, this is a longer route with the return to the Langdale Valley along the same paths as the ascent.

The quietest route up Scafell Pike is without doubt from the Eskdale Valley, this is a great walk, but not a short walk, it's a long way along the valley from Eskdale and then a steep climb to the summit of Scafell Pike.
