Coniston
"The Coniston Fells are predominantly Lakeland, with lofty ridges, steep and craggy declivities, lovely waterfalls and lonely tarns and the general scenic charm so typical of the district." |

The Coniston Fells at the southern tip of the Lake District offer wonderful high ridges with interesting summits and expansive views of both Lakeland and south over Morecambe Bay. Over this weekend we will take in all the high summits of the Coniston Massif, on the Saturday climbing Dow Crag and the Old Man of Coniston from Coniston Village while on day two we will tackle Wetherlam ans Swirl How from Little Langdale. |
"This fine hill is too vast and sturdy to be disfigured and weakened by man's feeble scratchings on it's surface, and remains today, as of old, a compelling presence to which walkers in Brathay will oft turn their eager steps." |
