Wainwrights in The Western Fells

These are the 33 Wainwrights that lie in the Western Fells — 33 of the 214 on the full list. The highest is Great Gable at 2,949 feet (899 metres); the lowest is Fellbarrow at 1,365 feet (416 metres).

The Wainwrights are the 214 Lake District fells described by Alfred Wainwright in his seven Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells, published between 1955 and 1966. They are not defined by height or prominence — they are simply the fells Wainwright chose to write up. Walking all 214 is one of Britain's best-known hillwalking challenges.

How many Wainwrights are in the Western Fells?

There are 33, out of 214 on the full list.

Do these count towards other lists?

Often, yes. A summit can belong to several lists at once, and marking it in WayMark counts it towards every list it belongs to.
