The Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells are the work of the legendary fell walker, artist and author. This edition, reproduced from the original handwritten pages, marks the 50th anniversary of the first Pictorial Guide.
The North Western Fells are bounded by the River Derwent and the River Cocker - an area lauded by Wainwright as first-class fell-walking territory. The ridge walking here is some of the finest in the Lake District, offering views of unsurpassed beauty. There is something for all walkers: steep, high mountains such as Grasmoor, rugged individualists such as Castle Crag, and destinations such as Catbells, which Wainwright calls 'a family fell where grandmothers and infants can climb the heights together, a place beloved'.
These popular Pictorial Guides have been treasured by generations of walkers and are as enchanting and inspiring now as when they were written, half a century ago.
