Kirk Fell, Mountain summit in Lake District National Park, England.
Kirk Fell rises to an elevation of 802 meters with a prominence of 181 meters, offering views across the Western Fells of the Lake District.
The mountain has been a reference point for local shepherds since medieval times, when they used its distinctive profile to navigate the surrounding valleys.
The Mosedale Horseshoe walking route through Kirk Fell represents a traditional Lake District mountain challenge pursued by generations of British hikers.
A large wind shelter marks the summit location, providing protection for hikers who reach the top via paths from Wasdale Head or Great Gable.
The mountain presents two distinct faces: a grass-covered eastern slope and a western face characterized by dramatic rock formations and gullies.
