Great Rigg - Central Fells
Great Rigg is situated 7 km north northwest of Ambleside and reaches a height of 2,513 feet. It is invariably climbed on the way to the more significant fell of Fairfield which lies close by as part of the popular 'Fairfield Horseshoe': a 16 km circular walk which starts and finishes in Ambleside. A direct ascent can be done from Grasmere up the south west ridge taking in Stone Arthur on the way.

The summit is crowned by a substantial cairn which provides good views of the Lakeland mountains to the west, a distinctive feature of the outlook is the large number of lakes and tarns that are in view, with ten sizeable bodies of water well seen.

Hindscarth - North Western Fells
Hindscarth (2,385 feet) lies between the valleys of Buttermere and Newlands.

Often ascended from Newlands Chapel via the Scope End ridge, Hindscarth and Robinson are often combined into a single walk. The fell is also part of a longer walk including Catbells, High Spy, Dale Head and along the Littledale Edge ridge to Robinson — the Newlands Horseshoe.

The view north into the Newlands catchment is excellent, backed by Skiddaw. All of the major fell groups with the exception of High Street can be seen.
