Scafell Pike at 978 metres is the highest mountain in England, a massive rocky summit in the heart of the Lake District whose ascent via the popular Wasdale Head route is one of the great walking experiences in Britain. The mountain is also the first peak of the Three Peaks Challenge combining Scafell Pike, Ben Nevis, and Snowdon in 24 hours. Hotels near Scafell Pike in Wasdale, Eskdale, and Coniston provide the most direct walking access to the Lake District's highest ground.
