The Fairfield Horseshoe is an absolute classic Lake District walk, rewarding us with spectacular views overlooking much of the area. This walk will take us to the top of these hills: Nab Scar, Low Pike, High Pike (Scandale), Heron Pike North Top, Heron Pike (Rydal), Hart Crag, Great Rigg, Fairfield, and Dove Crag. This includes 8 Wainwrights!!
This is a 10 mile + (16.4km) route, with a lot of ups and downs on both ridges. These undulations can really take their toll, with a total climb of 3,543ft (1080m)!
The route is mostly on good, clear paths, with a little scrambling over rocks required occasionally.
This walk is best for fit, strong walkers, however, please rest assured that our Grand Scale Trails are led by a qualified and experienced Mountain Leader, who will support you and encourage you along the way. We will have plenty of rest breaks and walk as a group at all times.
You will be able to experience a true mountain trail with an experienced guide, enjoy spectacular views, and ultimately feel an incredible sense of achievement.
What's included?
A small group atmosphere (max. 8 participants per leader)
Fully guided walk with a professional and knowledgeable Mountain Leader.
Full details of what to wear / bring and where to meet.
An Abigail's Trails Grand Scale Trails Certificate upon completion.
Well behaved / friendly dogs (with people and other dogs) are welcome, but make sure they are capable and bear in mind that we are likely to encounter livestock on the way, so leads are needed. Additionally, please be aware that there are some stiles to negotiate along the route, which may pose challenges, particularly for larger dogs.
Please arrange your own transport and accommodation, if required. However, if you would like me to help arrange car pooling, this will be an option, also.
We recommend having insurance to cover, at a minimum: cancellation and curtailment.
