Sketch of Alfred Wainwright

Alfred Wainwright

1907Born1991DiedAlfred Wainwright was a fellwalker, illustrator and author whose seven hand-drawn Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells, written between 1952 and 1966, are still the best-loved guidebooks to the Lake District. Born in Blackburn in 1907, he fell for the fells on his first visit in 1930 and later moved to Kendal, where he drew every page by hand.The 214 fells described in those books became known as the Wainwrights, and climbing them all is one of Britain’s favourite hill-bagging challenges, championed today by The Wainwright Society. They range from Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain at 978 metres, to Castle Crag at just 290 metres, across seven books: the Eastern, Far Eastern, Central, Southern, Northern, North Western and Western Fells. This map brings all 214 Wainwrights together in one place, showing where each fell sits and how they connect across the landscape, so you can follow in the footsteps of the man who taught generations to love the fells.
