Most ascents to Skiddaw Little Man begin from the car park above Latrigg and follow the broad path up Jenkin Hill. From the summit, many go on to its parent peak, Skiddaw, England’s fourth highest. Quieter alternatives include routes from the ‘Back o’ Skiddaw’ at Skiddaw House, said to be England’s most remote inhabited building and home to a charming hostel.
Applethwaite and Millbeck also make good bases for adventures to Skiddaw Little Man. For those after an adrenaline rush, the southwest arête route from Millbeck offers scrambling interest of around grade I that can be avoided if it all feels like too much.

Embark on a challenging hike up Skiddaw, England's fourth-highest mountain, on this rewarding loop from Keswick. The trail covers 10.2 miles (16.4 km) with a significant elevation gain of 2900 feet (884 metres), typically taking around 5 hours and 53 minutes to complete. You'll follow a well-trodden, stony path, often called the Jenkin Hill Bridleway, which offers a steady gradient through rounded, grassy slopes. As you ascend, you'll experience diverse terrain and expansive panoramic views, including Borrowdale to the south and the wilder "Back o' Skiddaw" area.
This difficult hike requires good fitness, but its accessibility from Keswick makes it a popular choice. You can start directly from the town center, eliminating the need for a car. Be prepared for potentially cold and windy conditions at the summit, even on milder days in the valley, so bring suitable clothing and sturdy footwear. The route is generally straightforward, but the upper sections are exposed to the elements.
Skiddaw is known as a "gentle giant" among the Lake District's higher peaks, offering a manageable yet significant mountain climb. From the summit, you can enjoy unparalleled 360-degree views of the entire Lake District, including Keswick, Derwentwater, Bassenthwaite Lake, and other major fells. The mountain itself is formed from ancient Skiddaw slate, and a circular stone-built wind shelter from 1876 stands at the top, adding a touch of history to your achievement.
