Walking the Southern Fells
The Wainwright and Outlying fells we group as the Southern area of the Lake District — each with its height, a typical round time, the bus where there’s one, and today’s predicted conditions. Grouped by our own area tag (a practical guide, not a fixed authored canon). Check the live conditions and the mountain forecast before the tops.
0 of these are rated good to climb on 27 July — see live conditions →
A prediction from our daily fell score (clear summits, wind, rain, visibility), not a guarantee — always check the mountain forecast before you go.
