One family's Lakeland Fell walking Blog by Rob Marsh
"Many are those who have fallen under the spell of Lakeland, and many are they who have been moved to tell of their affection in story, verse and picture"
We are ... Rob, Sue, Ste and Spud - and this is our personal blog about walking to all the 214 Wainwright classified Fell summits in the Lake District. We use images, videos and text to describe how we get to the tops of all of the Mountains.We hope to provide sufficient detail within the blogs for anyone to follow so that they themselves may enjoy the wonderful views to be had in this outstanding area of natural beauty. Please feel free to give us a "Like" on Facebook should you find the blogs useful. Our individual fell counts are displayed below

"Surely there is no other place in this whole wonderful world quite like Lakeland... No other so exquisitely lovely, no other so charming, no other that calls so insistently across a gulf of distance. All who truly love Lakeland are exile when away from it"
