  • My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
    My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on.

  • The Fairfield Horseshoe, Wansfell and Orrest Head a Weekend Walking Adventure for London-Based Hikers
    The Fairfield Horseshoe, Wansfell and Orrest Head A weekend walking adventure for London-based hikers 1 of 24 www.londonhiker.com Introduction A classic Lake District circular ridge walk starting from the town of Ambleside, the Fairfield Horseshoe takes in several Wainwright fells and will certainly blow the cobwebs away as you follow the 'horseshoe' round. This is one of the Lake District's most famous day walks, starting from Ambleside in the heart of the Lakes, and it offers gorgeous views of Lake Windermere, and many fells around. On Day 2, walk to Windermere via the spectacular viewpoints Wansfell Pike and Orrest Head, which inspired Wainwright to move to the Lake district. This weekend is based in one location so you will not have to carry your luggage on your hike, apart from on Day 2 when you will walk to Windermere. Summary You'll travel up to Ambleside in the evening, potentially after work, or if you prefer, travelling in the afternoon. On Day 1 you will walk the Fairfield Horseshoe, a classic ridge walk. On Day 2 you will climb up Wansfell Pike and then walk to Orrest Head at Windermere, where you can catch the train back home and be back in your own bed in the evening. You could extend the weekend to three days, by staying an extra night in Ambleside and spending some time exploring the local area on Day 2, then walking to Windermere on Day 3 instead. Some suggestions are provided for extending the weekend by an extra day. Highlights • The achievement of having competed the famous Horseshoe walk and eight of Wainwright's fells to boot (not sure who Wainwright is? Find out more here).

  • Walk Over Wansfell Pike to Ambleside Via Stock Ghyll
    WALK OVER WANSFELL PIKE TO AMBLESIDE VIA STOCK GHYLL FORCE DISTANCE: 4.1 Miles ASCENT 420m GRADE Moderate, walking boots required TIME: 2 1/2 - 3 HOURS Plus return REFRESHMENTS: Plenty in Ambleside Overview of Walk: This walk is quite a climb over the back of Wansfell, but you are rewarded with wonderful views of Ambleside and the Langdales . You can take a brief detour just before you return to Ambleside to see Stock Ghyll Force a spectacular 70ft waterfall. The walk starts from the Cottage and ends in Ambleside – the return to Brockhole opposite the cottage is achieved through a frequent bus service on the main road or following the route of the walk described through Skeghyll woods DANGER NOTE: The descent from Wansfell Pike is steep and can be slippery in wet conditions. The paths around Stock Ghyll Force can be slippery especially in Autumn when the leaves have fallen. The paths over the back of Wansfell can be difficult to find in misty conditions, do not attempt this walk in low cloud cover unless you are confident with a map and compass. Dog walkers : There are some steep stiles which can be a problem for arthritic old dogs ! Cottage to Wansfell Walk Description: 1. From the cottage go through the gate and turn left and follow the path into the woods behind the cottage gardens. Continue on the path until you cross over a beck and enter a surfaced road. Turn left here and very shortly the footpath becomes a loose stone path as it rises steeply uphill, with your first decent glimpse of Lake Windermere on your right.

These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
