Story
On 29th September 2018 a team of walkers from Learning Resources UK will be taking on the Langdale skyline, walking the iconic Crinkle Crags and the Langdale Pikes. A 'Walk of Hope' for Brain Tumour Research and one of many Walks of Hope happening this weekend.
The peaks they will cover include:
- Harrison Stickle
- Loft Crag (option to extend)
- Pike O Stickle
- Rossett Pike
- Bowfell
- Esk Pike (option to extend)
- Crinkle Crags top
- Great Knot
- PikeO Blisco (option to extend)
The route is around 18km with 1,200m of ascent.
The much loved Langdale valley gives easy access to a number of classic mountains, with their rocky and rugged peaks, being deservedly popular with walkers and rock climbers alike.
It is home to the Langdale Pikes, a group of summits which provide a well-known and easily identifiable skyline, even from far way.
This challenge aims to complete a circuit around the greater part of the valley, ascending all of these classic peaks.
Our aim for 2018 is to raise enough money for one complete day of research, a total of £2,740, and add a tile to one of the charity's Walls of Hope.
