Lake District fells in 5 days
Five summits, five lakes, one perfect autumn week.
Five days in the Lake District lets you summit Scafell Pike (England's highest) and Helvellyn (most popular), walk the Coniston Old Man, circuit Tarn Hows, and finish with the easier Catbells above Derwentwater. Lake-side rest days at Buttermere and Wast Water round out the week.
