About this escape

Raw, scenic and slightly humbling — Lake District Fells is European wilderness at its most rewarding. Wordsworth country with proper coffee, fell running and tea shops.

Going to Lake District Fells is amazing because you get the rare combination of striking landscapes, a deeply local culture, and the ease of European travel — short transfers, safe streets, and a partner network (Intrepid Travel) that can put a complete trip together for you in minutes.
