Lambrigg Fell

Lambrigg Fell is a mountain summit in Cumbria that rises to 339 meters above sea level, representing the highest point between Kendal and the M6 motorway in the southeastern part of the region. The gentle, grass-covered slopes give this place an open character with wide views across the surrounding terrain.

A shelter structure located about 100 meters west of the summit recalls hunting parties that visited this mountain centuries ago. These remains show how people have used this land for hunting throughout history.

This fell sits outside the Lake District boundaries and features grassland moorland that looks noticeably different from the rocky peaks typical of the region. Visitors walking here notice how the gentle slopes feel distinct from the landscape they expect in the Lake District.

Access to the summit follows a track that passes a small reservoir, though the landowner restricts entry beyond the highest sheepfold on the path. Visitors should be aware of these boundaries and stick to marked routes to avoid trespassing on private land.

A wind farm operating near the summit since 2000 generates 6.5 megawatts of power and was England's most significant wind facility of its era. This installation marks the transformation of the mountain into a site of renewable energy production.
