📖 Key Information

Hollow Moor at 334m (1,096ft) is a broad, heathery moorland above the Crake valley between Coniston Water and Windermere, giving wide views of the surrounding South Lakeland countryside. Wainwright included it in his Outlying Fells guide. A peaceful, easy walk in the quiet moorland country between the two lakes.

Free mapping: OpenTopoMap / OpenStreetMap (switch layers top-right). Parking positions are approximate.

🎯 Bonus Birketts within 3 km

These Birkett tops are not Wainwright summits — detour to them on this walk and they are pure profit. Distances are straight-line; allow extra for terrain.
