Loughrigg Fell
OS GRID REF:-NY 34697
Loughrigg Fell stands at the edge of the long ridge of hills coming down from High Raise over Silver How towards Ambleside and is separated from its neighbours by the depression of Red Bank. The fell rises to 335 metres (1,099 ft) high.
Loughrigg Terrace

The fell is easily accessed. Ambleside, Elterwater, Grasmere and Rydal are all within reach, a nearby car park is provided at White Moss Common. The many tracks which traverse the fell include the Loughrigg Terrace, a level path which provides stunning views of Grasmere. Just beyond the eastern end of the Terrace are Rydal Caves , these are not natural caverns, but rather the result of quarrying.
