High Raise

Grid Reference:	*NY 28074 09536*
Height:	*762 metres/2500 feet*

"Hereabouts the surround of mountainous country is complete, the western arc being occupied by a tumultuous skyline and the eastern horizon formed of lofty smooth ranges."

A Wainwright

High Raise, the highest of the central fells is one of the best viewpoint of the Lakeland Fells, with stunning views over the western ranges and east over Helvellyn and the surrounding fells.

The gentle grassy summit can be reached from all directions, Langdale and Borrowdale both give good approaches but the Grasmere side of the mountain gives the more popular routes, including the route over Blea Rigg and Sergeant Man.

Testimonials

Rating:

Just a quick message to say that the walk was great fun. I was impressed that my guide Rick was able to arrive on time even though the traffic was madness due to a race taking place in the same location. The walk was broken down into easy to manage segments and I felt very confident throughout the walk. I had been nervous about the drop that everyone spoke about. However, I followed the footsteps of the guide with ease. I really enjoyed myself and will be booking Rick for my next walk in the lakes. My dog, Koda enjoyed the walk and then we went to the Keswick Ghost Walk to work up an appetite for our pub dinner. It was a great day out. Many thanks Rick!
