Hiking
Skiddaw House youth hostel is often referred to as the most remote house in England, as it is a 3-mile (5 km) walk from the nearest road. Situated at 1,542 feet (470 m) and nestled between Skiddaw, Blencathra and Great Calva, it is a glorious location and an ideal basecamp for adventures in the Northern Fells.
