Black Fell, Mountain summit in Cumbria, United Kingdom
Black Fell rises 323 meters above sea level, offering extensive views across the Lake District between Coniston and Hawkshead villages in northern England.
Alfred Wainwright included Black Fell in his Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells, documenting its paths and geological features during his Lake District explorations.
The mountain forms part of the Furness Fells, connecting with neighboring peaks through a network of paths frequented by outdoor enthusiasts throughout the year.
Multiple starting points provide access to the summit, with the main route following Iron Keld Plantation's path from the southern slopes of the mountain.
The summit features two points of equal height: a trig point and a rock formation 55 meters north, both marking the highest spots on the mountain.
