Esk Pike

Situated between Bowfell and the Scafells at the head of Langdale this remote position gives fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. Far from the road any ascent of its rocky summit is a strenuous task.

Why not try walking up this hill using one of our walks:

• Rossett Pike, Angle Tarn, Esk Pike and Bowfell

... or, if you've walked it already, why not log on or register and record your walk?
