Discover the excitement of climbing Scafell, England’s second-highest mountain, in the heart of the Lake District. Guided by experienced instructors, this adventure takes you through iconic routes like Mickledore, Foxes Tarn, and Lord’s Rake. Suitable for all abilities, this walk offers a safe and enjoyable way to explore this rugged landscape.
Your day begins with a briefing from your guide, outlining the route and safety considerations. Depending on the chosen starting point, the walk will include iconic features such as Mickledore, a dramatic col that marks a key waypoint, and Foxes Tarn, where you’ll tackle a steep ascent to the summit. Along the way, you’ll enjoy breaks for rest, hydration, and photo opportunities.
Reaching the summit of Scafell, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views, including a glimpse of its slightly taller neighbour, Scafell Pike, on clear days. The descent introduces the dramatic terrain of Lord’s Rake, a narrow ridge cutting past Scafell’s west wall. Winter ascents bring added challenges, including snow-covered paths and the use of crampons and ice axes, for which training is available.
Scafell is situated in the Lake District, accessible from various starting points, including Wasdale, Seathwaite, or Brotherilkeld.
The choice of route depends on group preferences, fitness levels, and weather conditions, with Wasdale offering the shortest approach. Each route provides a unique perspective of Scafell’s diverse terrain and stunning surroundings.
Participants should have a reasonable fitness level to handle steady walking on uneven terrain for several hours. While our guides have safely led walkers of all abilities, having a Bronze fitness level ensures you’ll get the most out of the day.
Winter climbs require confidence using technical equipment, and preparatory training can be arranged.
With over two decades of guiding experience, our team is passionate about creating memorable outdoor adventures tailored to your needs. Our qualified instructors hold Mountain Instructor and Winter Mountain Leader certifications, ensuring a professional and safe environment.
Beyond guiding you to the summit, we share tips on navigation and mountain safety, helping you build skills for your future outdoor adventures. Our commitment to providing fun, engaging, and safe walks has made us a trusted choice for climbers and walkers alike.
