Red Pike, Mountain summit in Lake District, England
Red Pike rises to an elevation of 826 meters above Buttermere and Crummock Water lakes, forming part of the Scafell mountain range.
The mountain area holds connections to past mining activities, reflecting the industrial development that shaped the Lake District region through centuries.
Red Pike forms part of several established climbing lists, including Wainwrights, Nuttalls, Hewitts, and the Bob Graham Round mountaineering challenge.
Hikers access the summit through paths starting at the pay-and-display car park behind the Fish Hotel in Buttermere village.
The natural amphitheater created by Sourmilk Gill below the summit presents specific geological formations found nowhere else in the region.
