    Tips

    High Pike is the most northerly of the Lakeland fells over 2,000 feet (610 m). The summit is known for its majestic light and changing moods. It affords an excellent view north over the Solway Firth and the Scottish Border hills.

      Great views of the sunset, can see all the way into Scotland.

        The northern fell of Hike Pike offers up great views all round. Summit cairn and a stone seat at the top for the weary walker. Shelter just off the summit is ideal if the wind has got up.

          Wasn't the best of days when I was up there but a commanding trig point, shelter and an unusual location for a stone/slate bench?

            Only if the weather is suitable...

              Second time here, one of two Wainwrights you may visit along the Cumbria way, Latrig being the other. Great views before descending into the old mine workings.

                ...also great view of the Irish Sea to the west
