Your days in the fells will be tailored to you and your friends. All our walking days and multiday walking breaks are guided with our superb team of qualified Mountain Leaders who are a fountain of knowledge of the Lake District valleys and fells. We are all passionate about our area and hope to share this with you alongside our own tales of the fells. Please browse through our one day adventures and walking breaks to be tempted into something a little bit different... some of our routes will not be found anywhere else as they are designed by our lead guide and inspiration behind Hiking Highs, Nicky Sproson.
When booking with us, we discuss which route would be best of your group based on previous experience in the outdoors and fitness levels of the group. Your day could be split, some walk the valleys whilst others head high up into the Lake District mountains so everyone enjoys their day out to the full.
Hiking Highs are here to make this YOUR adventure!
