⛰️ Whiteside Pike

📖 Key Information

Whiteside Pike at 321m (1,053ft) is a heathery fell above Kentmere, giving pleasant views of the Kentmere valley and the Far Eastern Fells. Wainwright included it in his Outlying Fells guide as part of the South Lakeland group. A quiet, easy walk above the Kentmere valley with good views of the higher fells to the north.

No bonus Birketts within 3 km — every Birkett near here is already a Wainwright summit, so just enjoy the walk.
