This adventure promises an unforgettable day filled with breathtaking landscapes\, challenging terrain\, and a true sense of accomplishment. \n\n\n\nThe trail begins with a gentle ascent\, allowing you to warm up before veering towards the iconic Hall’s Fell\, where the real excitement begins. Hall’s Fell Ridge offers an exhilarating scramble that tests your balance and agility. With your guide’s expertise and support\, you’ll safely navigate the exposed sections and relish the thrill of conquering this challenging ridge. \n\n\n\nBut the adventure doesn’t end there….. \n\n\n\nOnce we reach the summit of Blencthra there is a short decent back down to the beginning of the renowned Sharp Edge.

A day of good visibility might persuade others to tackle a mountain walk without a map and compass\, maybe follow the crowd. But what happens when the mountain is quiet\, the clouds roll in and visibility is lost? A massive percentage of the UK mountain rescue call outs could have been prevented if route knowledge and navigation skills had been applied.  \n\n\n\nWe’re offering an introduction to navigation\, aimed at people with little or no navigation experience who want to kick start their journey to becoming independent in the mountains.
