Cold Pike, Mountain summit in Lake District, England.
Cold Pike is a 701 meter summit in the Lake District featuring rocky paths and steep slopes throughout the approach. The peak offers far-reaching views across Cumbria's mountains and valleys.
The mountain became part of the Lake District National Park in 1951 when the park was established. This protection helped preserve the natural landscape for future visitors and walkers.
Local mountaineering groups regularly organize guided walks to Cold Pike, teaching traditional navigation skills and mountain safety techniques.
Multiple hiking routes lead from Great Langdale valley to the summit with parking at Old Dungeon Ghyll. Proper footwear and mountain gear are needed for safe trekking on the rocky terrain.
The summit features three separate peaks, with the western top providing clear sightlines toward Wrynose Pass and the Scafell range. These multiple tops create different vantage points for those reaching the highest point.
