Introducing Langdale

Surrounded on all sides by towering peaks, saw-tooth ridges and scree-strewn slopes, the Langdale Valley is one of the most dramatic sights in the Lake District. The main road snakes past Elterwater into the valley of Great Langdale, the starting point for some of the region’s classic trails – including the trail into the Langdale Pikes past Harrison Stickle (736m) and Pike o’ Stickle (709m), and the spectacular ascent of Crinkle Crags (819m). An ancient packhorse trail leads through Little Langdale over Wrynose and Hardknott Passes to the coast, passing a ruined Roman fort en route.
