Product Description

Cicerone's "Lakeland Fellranger" series is the modern rucksack reference for the discerning fell adventurer. "Fellrangers" are inspirational and thorough - and together the eight books in the series provide a comprehensive and contemporary guide to the fells of the English Lake District. The guides in the "Fellranger" series are ideal for practical use outdoors, and are equally useful for armchair planning. Each fell has its own dedicated chapter, and the variety of routes on the fell are carefully depicted on Harvey maps and fellscape diagrams. The scenic qualities of the landscape are illustrated by colour photographs and by detailed summit panoramas that help to underpin the reader's appreciation of these magical mountains.The majestic Mid-Western Fells are held in the triangle of Great Langdale, Borrowdale and Wasdale and are defined by four high passes. Two are pedestrian - Sticks and Styhead - and two are motorable - Hardknott and Wrynose. The group coalesces around the mighty Scafells, with fabulous wild dale approaches around the compass, promising rich pickings for the curious.
