Took in Whoap on the way hiking between Crag Fell and Lank Rigg. It was a see as far as your nose day for me!

Whoap is a 1,677-foot (511 m) Birkett fell in the Lake District National Park. Whilst it looks quite a large and imposing grassy fell from a distance, its summit is quite flat and insignificant. A path runs along the top of the fell linking the Wainwrights of Lank Rigg and Crag Fell.

Nearly everyone climbs Whoap when going to or from Lank Rigg. However it is a Birkitt and a Synge if you’re into climbing those. You’ll need a GPS to locate the actual summit though.
