Wainwright’s meticulously hand-drawn
maps, diagrams and drawings take walkers up the 214 principal hills and mountains of the Lake District, describing the main routes of ascent from different starting points, as well as lesser-known variants, showing the summit viewpoint panoramas and the ridge routes that can be made to create longer walks. Every page combines words and illustrations to
present the routes in a way that is original, visually appealing
and easy to follow.
This new edition of Wainwright’s Walking Guide to the Lake
District Fells has been comprehensively revised. Paths, maps, diagrams and
route descriptions have been checked and corrected throughout. These revisions have been undertaken by writer and designer Clive
Hutchby, author of
The
Wainwright Companion
.
The Eastern Fells, Book One of Wainwright’s Walking Guides, covers the area
north of Ambleside,
between Ullswater and Thirlmere, and includes the ascents
of popular fells such as
Helvellyn, Catstycam,
Fairfield and Red Screes.
