- Scafell Pike and Lingmell via Piers Gill from Wasdale Head the Lake District....
Wasdale Head is a small hamlet in the Lake District National Park. It is located at the “head” of the valley of Wasdale, and is surrounded by some of England’s highest mountains: Scafell Pike, Sca Fell, Great Gable, Kirk Fell and Pillar.
Piers Gill is a ‘canyonʼ descent with several short pitches and one longer one; and no place for a Fell Walker do not attempt to walk down the bed of the stream!!
It is not possible to ascend the stream bed nor is there a path on the west side do not attempt a route here. There is a rock 'step', approximately 10m high located around half way up Piers Gill the path leads directly to the base.
Scafell Pike is the highest and the most prominent mountain in England, at an elevation of 978 metres above sea level. It is located in the Lake District, Cumbria, and is part of the Southern Fells and the Scafell massif. Scafell Pike forms part of the inactive Scafells volcano.
Lingmell is a fell in the Lake District, standing above the village of Wasdale Head. It is an outlier on the north-west flank of Scafell Pike.

Hi Andy, brilliant video again. Thats a route Ive always looked at but never got round to doing it but I persuaded my daughter and her now husband to try it last year instead of using the tourist route up to Scafell Pike. They loved it and never met a sole up to reaching the corridor route. It looks even more dramatic on your video. Loving your channel 👍
Thanks Tony these are the places I really crave and feel at home remote routes in the High Mountains Epic!!
Thanks for the great feedback mate very much appreciated Andy 😊 👍🏻
Great video thank you for sharing. This is on our list and so is the campsite you mentioned. Look forward to climbing this mountain.
It's a lovely part of the Lake District lol a bit busy for me in't Summer but always buzzing with a great atmosphere and a great pub!
Thanks for watching much appreciated Andy 😊

Fabulous video as always. I always remember the first time on the summit of Scafell Pike - I couldn't believe how stony it was lol. Superb scenery. Wild-camped at Sprinkling Tarn several years ago, just fabulous. Thank you for the views again!
There's a lot of rock up there in't there Penny crossing to Broad Crag there's even more...Piers Gill is like nothing elsewhere in't Lakes it's a remarkable epic place a photographers paradise... As always Penny thanks for watching very much appreciated Andy 😊
Hey Andy, another cracking film mate, loved it. Crazy you had the summit to yourself and by the looks of it all the way up to, very lucky indeed. Great filming , stunning views and music as usual. Really like the way you narrate us with tips and advice on the routes you do. Really strange how Billy is in front of you going up and behind you coming down, he must have a reason. Nice to see your subscriptions going up Andy. Looking forward to your next adventure. Take care
Thanks for watching and as always very much appreciate the lovely comments Steve...what a fantastic dramatic place Piers Gill is take care buddy

Hour in the car by Wastwater after doing Scafell & the Pike after (oh boi that was hard work 🥵)🤣
