Whinfell Ridge Walk: Quiet Paths, Wild Meadows & Quiet Wainwright Fells

Wainwright walk over Whinfell Ridge on a quiet Lakeland route near Tebay. Discover the hidden beauty of Whinfell Ridge on this peaceful and rarely-walked Lakeland route, just off the M6 near Tebay. This circular hike features five Wainwright tops from his Howgill Fells and Adjoining Fells book—all part of my ongoing Wainwright walks project: https://andybeckimages.co.uk/the-lake... Starting in Borrowdale Valley near Tebay, we pass historic farmsteads, follow Borrow Beck, and climb steadily onto the Whinfell Ridge, ticking off: Ashstead Fell Mabbin Crag Castle Fell Whinfell Beacon (Grayrigg Common – planned for a future visit) Wainwright split this area into three ridge walks—but I’ve combined them into one memorable journey with stunning views, quiet paths, and classic cairns. This is a truly underrated Wainwright walk that showcases the quieter side of the Lake District National Park. 📷 Ideal for walkers, photographers, and those looking for a lesser-known Lakeland route 🗺️ Part of the Lakeland 365 challenge 🌼 Walk through hay meadows, woodland, and upland ridge terrain 👍 Enjoyed the video?
