Harter Fell is a fantastic Wainwright at 2,139 feet (654 m) in height. Many head to the trig pillar but the true summit is a short scramble onto the highest of the rocky tors, great fun in dry weather. The views across Eskdale are outstanding. Don't forget to also hike Green Crag while you're in the area.

Great views over the Scafell range. Don't miss this little fell!

A real Lake District fell, but one that can be done from Eskdale, by this route, in an afternoon or evening.
