About Great Gable

Great Gable is one of the most distinctive fells in the Lake District, clearly visible and easily identified from all over the National Park. One of the unique locations for walkers, scramblers, and climbers alike. It provides a challenging alternative to the walk to the summit, completing a circuit of the fell’s precipitous slopes using trails that used to be the domain solely of hardened climbers.
