Branstree

Branstree mountain rises 713 meters above sea level in the Far Eastern Fells region of the Lake District, featuring a small stone pile near its trig station point.

The mountain gained recognition through its inclusion in Alfred Wainwright's comprehensive guide to the Lake District fells, which documented the regional hiking paths during the 20th century.

The summit belongs to the collection of Wainwright Fells, Birkett Hills, and Hewitt Hills, representing significant classifications in British mountaineering categorization systems.

Mardale Head provides the primary access point for hikers, with established paths leading to the summit requiring navigation tools and proper mountain walking equipment.

The mountain offers views toward Haweswater Reservoir and connects to neighboring peaks through a network of walking routes across the eastern Lake District landscape.
