Skiddaw Little Man, Mountain summit in Lake District National Park, England
Skiddaw Little Man reaches a height of 865 meters with steep slopes covered in Skiddaw slate and patches of grass at its peak.
The mountain features a stone memorial dedicated to the Howell family who maintained sheep herding activities on the adjacent Lonscale Fell.
Mountain writers Alfred Wainwright and Bill Birkett classified this peak as an independent fell despite its connection to the Skiddaw massif.
The ascent starts from Gale Road car park at 300 meters elevation, following the Cumbria Way before climbing uphill via marked stone paths.
From its convex southern slopes, visitors observe northern Lakeland valleys, lakes, and Scotland across the Solway Firth on clear days.
Elevation above the sea: 865 m
