Caw Fell

"Caw Fell, like many of us who lack a good shpe and attractive features, objects to having it's picture taken and is not at all co-operative as a subject for illustration."

A Wainwright

The huge mass of Caw Fell rises steeply from Ennerdale over Boat How and Iron Crag to the summit ridge, topped by the 'Ennerdale Fence', before dropping, gently, over grassy moorland down towards the Wasdale Valley.

One of the most remote summits in the Lake District and round trip over Caw Fell is generally at least a 12 mile trip.

The Ennerdale Fence is actually a large wall along the summit ridge, marking the watershed for the Ennerdale Reservoir below.

Testimonials

Rating:

Brilliant Lake District Walker! I can't thank John enough for his patience and skill in enabling me to walk all 214 of the Wainwright Fells. I started walking with LDW seven years ago having never climbed anything higher than the stairs at home. John and his team of consistently exceptional guides have encouraged and supported me to attempt walks I could never have imagined doing and yet did. I have seen some incredible sights, made new friends, become much fitter and developed a deep love of the beautiful Lake District. I have amazed myself (and my family!) and can't wait to walk with them again. Thank you so very, very much. Lucy
