Angletarn Pikes

Angletarn Pikes features two distinct rocky summits separated by 200 yards of peaty bog, with the northern peak reaching an elevation of 567 meters.

The mountain path includes remains of Chapel in the Hause, an ancient structure positioned at 400 meters elevation that raises questions about its original purpose.

The mountain sits within the Lake District National Park, an area that influenced numerous British literary figures through its natural landscapes and geological formations.

Multiple access routes lead to the summit from Patterdale, Bridgend, Hartsop, and Boredale Head, with the most common path starting at Boredale Hause.

The mountain derives its name from Angle Tarn, a quarter-mile-long lake featuring a central island that creates a mirror effect beneath the twin peaks.
