Esk Hause, Mountain pass in Lake District, Great Britain
Esk Hause consists of two separate passes at different elevations, with the higher true pass reaching 757 meters above sea level.
The pass has served as a crossing point between major valleys of the Lake District, connecting Eskdale, Borrowdale, Langdale, and Wasdale throughout centuries.
Local hiking communities recognize Esk Hause as a central meeting point where multiple walking paths intersect in the northern fells.
Walkers need detailed maps and navigation skills as the crossing paths on the grass plateau become particularly challenging during misty weather conditions.
The true Esk Hause stands between Great End and Esk Pike, making it the highest mountain pass in the Lake District at 30 meters above the wall shelter.
