Stony Cove Pike

Stony Cove Pike stands at 763 meters above sea level, featuring rough grasslands and craggy outcrops across its six extending ridges from the summit area.

The mountain, recognized in Ordnance Survey maps under different names including Caudale Moor and John Bell's Banner, marks significant mapping developments in British cartography.

The summit serves as a destination for Wainwright peak baggers, who incorporate this fell into their systematic exploration of Lake District mountains.

Hikers can access the mountain through multiple trails starting from Hartsop, Troutbeck, or Kirkstone Pass, with the Kirkstone Pass Inn route offering a gentler ascent.

The mountain contains evidence of industrial heritage near Caudale Quarry, positioned halfway down a steep edge where mining operations once took place.
