The Howgill Fells walking route on a map
  • Walking

The Howgill Fells

North West
18.6 km / 12 miles

Drive along the M6 motorway between Carlisle and Lancaster and a magnificent mountain range will rise before you. Fells such as Great Gable, Helvellyn, The Langdale Pikes and Scafell Pike will entice you in with their rugged charm. Not far from the Lake District and visible from the same stretch of Motorway lies a small mound of hills. Names such as Winder, Brant Fell and The Calf do not capture the imagination like their loftier neighbours. Having said that, The Howgill Fells are beautiful in their own right and well worth a visit.
