Due to drive up to the Lakes on Thursday evening, I made a decision on Thursday morning to climb Scafell Pike on Saturday! I came across The Lake District Walker in a Google search and just went for it. I've never climbed a mountain before, and am reasonably fit, but was slightly nervous, naturally. I was greeted warmly by our... More

My college-aged daughter and I had the pleasure of being guided on a "moderate" walk (approx. 5-6 hours) by Matt, one of the Lake District Walker guides. First, the level of tramping was just what we wanted, and Matt was an excellent "companion" who set a good pace that was just right. He is very competent and it is obvious... More

After promising myself for goodness knows how long that I'd climb Scafell Pike and finding myself with something of a free weekend I decided I would get on with it. I thought about heading up there solo, I had tackled other fells that way; but this wasn't somewhere I particulalry wanted to be on my own with the possibility of... More
