Regular price £10.00The Lake District contains some of England's finest mountain crags. Often in remote, high valleys, honed by the wind and rain into magnificent forms, these crags offer the keen middle-grade climber a series of Very Severe climbs- attained, in many cases, only after taxing and exciting walks.
The author, Tim Noble, recaptures the romantic walking spirit of the Victorians, linking 27 rock climbs, all at VS level, on 24 cliffs in 10 valleys. The result is a guide to a whole series of memorable expeditions and the first comprehensive climbing tour in the Lake District.
Each climb is described with vivid detail and dramatically illustrated with stunning colour photographs, giving the real flavour to the crags. Each climb forms part of a strenuous and challenging day in the mountains.
