Wetherlam is reached from Birkfell Hause by Wetherlam Edge

Caption - Wetherlam Edge - Wetherlam summit is reached from Birkfell Hause by the ridge of Wetherlam Edge which is surprisingly dramatic after the easy walking up to this point. There are a number of rock steps to be climbed but nothing difficult. In mist the summit cairn is found by continuing straight ahead for 100 yards after the ridge levels out.

Lake District

Walking in the Lake District National Park is amongst the best in the British Isles. The natural beauty has attracted many artists and writers through the centuries and today the same scenery provides the perfect backdrop to a wide variety of walks. The National Park is located wholly within Cumbria with Windermere, Ambleside and Keswick the main tourist towns. For many this is the finest area in England for walking with a wide variety of scenery. Even on the busiest weekends it is possible to get away from the crowds by carefully selecting one of the less-visited fells. More Information
