Facility information
The Langdale Pikes are the best-known of the Lake District’s fells, for reasons of their aesthetic charisma, views and the history ingrained into their rockwork. Pike of Stickle was the site of a prehistoric axe factory, and its gothic rockwork is thick with atmosphere. Up here it’s impossible to not let your mind drift.
