⛰️ Longlands Fell

📖 Key Information

Longlands Fell at 483m (1,585ft) is the lowest of the Back o' Skiddaw group, a pleasant, easy summit above Caldbeck giving views across the northern moorlands. Wainwright included it as a separate fell, noting its role as an easy introduction to the Back o' Skiddaw area. The ascent from Longlands hamlet is very short. Most naturally part of the northern Skiddaw circuit. A gentle, accessible summit for all abilities.

🎯 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.
