Subject: Lake District - Fell Walking
First of all apologies if this comes up in the music section, I can't see how you can get a thread starting in the non-music section. Perhaps it does it automatically?

Anyway, I'm considering undertaking a weeks walking holiday in the Lakes taking in as many of the peaks and fells over 800m and as many over 700m as I can.

I'm aware of the approximate number that this might be - I have a list of nearly 50 peaks over 800m - and am used to long walks over several fells,peaks and pikes.

I've studdied the OS maps and think I ccould work out a route myself but I wondered if there was anyone out there who know's of a recognised route, which does not rely on the use of transport of any kind, except Shank's pony, and preferably entails overnight stops at a pub, although I'm aware that one or two Youth Hostels may have to be frequented along the way?

Any help would be much appreciated

Cheers
