	Lakeland Landscape - Langdale Pikes
		The Langdale Pikes provide the visitor with a great sense of scale, and they are visible on the skyline from many miles away when approaching the Lake District from the south.
		The Pikes are irresistible to artists and photographers, and their appearance in view captures the imagination and interest of even those visitors who have no real passion for mountains.
		The discovery in 1947 of an axe-head in a wide scree gully on the Langdale Pikes, and further examples found since, show that this was once the site of a Neolithic axe-head industry.

	English Lakes - An illustrated guide to the Lake District - Langdales.
		The magestic, craggy profile of the Langdale Pikes, Wordsworth's 'five solemn pikes of Langdale', are the most distinctive, instantly recognisable of mountains in the Lake District, while the Great and Little Langdale Valleys contain some of the most outstanding scenery Lakeland has to offer.
		Great Langdale is one of the earliest parts of the region to be occupied by man. A four thousand year old axe quarry stands on the heights of Pike o' Stickle, located on the scree slope on the steep southern side of the fell.
		Situated on the edge of Hardknott Fell is the Roman Fort of Mediobogdum, one of England's finest Roman ruins, built in the reign of the Emperor Hadrian (117-38).

	Lake District - Langdale Pikes index
		The Langdale Pikes form a compact and highly popular group of fells at the southern end of Lakeland's central ridge.
		The Pikes themselves, a trio of shapely topknots, are well placed at the northwestern end of Langdale and are thus well seen from the environs of Windermere and Ambleside, two of the principal towns in the area.
		High Raise, at 2500ft the principal summit of the group, stands north of the pikes themselves, a gentle lump of a hill in the midst of a vast sweep of moorland.

	Walking Route: High Raise, Langdale Pikes - OUTDOORSmagic Walking

		This route is a great introduction to the range with lovely views not just down to Langdale itself, but over to the Coniston and Buttermere fells and beyond to Great End and Great Gable.
		The Main Face of Pike of Stickle in Langdale has it all, a dramatic situation, a proper summit and enough interest to make it worth the effort.

	Langdale Pikes for Wetter or Worse Walks
		I had planned an ambitious route around some of the scrambles in the Langdales Pikes but when I arrived at the Stickle Ghyll car park it was was raining even harder than it had done whilst I was driving to the Lake District.
		It looks like Pike o' Stickle has been visited by the footpath fairy, a good reconstructed path half way up to the summit but I'm glad it stops there, the ascent would lose some of its charm if there was a stairway all the way up.
		For once I have Pike o' Stickle all to myself, and by the looks of it quite a large slice of the Langdale Pikes is all mine too.

		By the time we reached the Three Shire Stone at the summit of Wrynose Pass, the road was blocked and this is where we had to turn round, but not before taking in the views of Pike O'Blisco, Cold Pike and the Coniston Fells on the other side of the pass.

	High Raise (Langdale) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The summit itself, which is also known as High White Stones due to a smattering of grey boulders in the vicinity of the highest point, has an Ordnance Survey column and a large cairn which also doubles as a wind shelter; a ruined fence also crosses the summit plateau.
		Ascents of High Raise are usually done from Stonethwaite in Borrowdale or the New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel in Great Langdale, although routes are also viable from Grasmere and Thirlmere.
		The Stonethwaite approach gives the walker a chance to climb the neighbouring fell of Ullscarf, while the route from Great Langdale allows visits to the splendid Langdale Pikes either before or after climbing High Raise.

	Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel
		When approaching the Lake District from the south, the Langdale Pikes in the Langdale Valley will dominate the views to the north west.

		The route up past Stickle Tarn onto the summit of Harrison Stickle and then down to the left of the deep Dungeon Ghyll ravine is one of the classic walks in the Lake District and not to be missed.
