St Sunday Crag

St Sunday Crag is a mountain summit in the Eastern Fells of the Lake District rising to 841 meters. The rounded peak features two cairns marking where rocks emerge through the surrounding green terrain.

The peak's name derives from Saint Dominic, though the precise connection between the saint and this location remains unclear. The mountain has long served as part of established walking routes that crisscross the Lake District region.

This mountain serves as a segment of Alfred Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk, connecting the Irish Sea to the North Sea through northern England.

The main walking route starts at Grisedale Bridge near Patterdale Hotel and follows established footpaths to the summit. The terrain consists of rough grassland with some rocky sections, so walkers should prepare for changeable weather and potentially muddy conditions.

From the summit visitors can see Striding Edge, the dramatic sharp ridge of the adjacent Helvellyn massif that attracts many climbers. This viewpoint makes the location a natural stop for walkers combining multiple peaks in a single day.
