Best Scafell Pike Walk - The Corridor Route from Seathwaite to climb England's highest mountain summit in the Lake District


Scafell Pike walk Corridor route map height climbing best route up, Seathwaite Lake District Lakes Wasdale 3 peaks
You’ll get incredible views like this on a Scafell Pike walk. There are quite a few walking routes up to Scafell Pike - but the Corridor Route from Seathwaite is the best way in my humble opinion and is often referred to as the Connoisseurs route (as those experienced in walking the various Scafell Pike routes will recommend this particular route). You may well only ever climb Scafell Pike once in your life, so make sure you choose this best walk route & way up, and not the more popular & shorter route from Wasdale which has a lot less variety.

The north-sea was an ideal place to dabble in a bit of cold water swimming - even better when it is snowing :-)

Mount Snowdon Walk via Crib Goch Ridge Route, Snowdonia. The tallest mountain in Wales and my favourite UK ridge walk


Crib Goch ridge, Snowdon walk, Mount Snowdon Horsehoe walk, via crib Goch Route, Pyg Track
What a view! A walker on the Crib Goch ridge. You can just make out the summit of Mount Snowdon where the clouds have cleared a little to the right of the walker, and further to the right is the summit of Garnedd Ugain. The Crib Goch section of the walk is definitely the best and most exhilarating ridge route I've done in the UK to date.
