Holme Fell is only 1,040 feet (317 m) in height but the views to the larger nearby fells (particularly the Coniston range) are beautiful.

Day 6: Holme Fell, Black Fell, and Lingmoor Fell

Three separate walks on a muggy, overcast day just down the road from Ambleside to bag three Wainwrights. Not much joy on the photo front, though. Three nice enough fells and still a good session out and about if you take all the walks together. Around 12 kilometres and 730 metres …
