For the next two weeks the entire Lake District Climbs guide will be free on Rockfax Digital. The Lake District is one of the most beautiful, and the best, climbing areas in the UK. You can get access to the finest crags in the Lakes on your phone for absolutely nothing.
To access the guide for free just go to the app store, download Rockfax Digital and sign in.
Lake District Climbs provides comprehensive coverage of the very best traditional climbing in the mountains and valleys of English Lake District. The range and variety of climbing available is outstanding, from low-level single-pitch outcrop cragging to long multi-pitch mountain routes. There is something here for climbers of all abilities from experts to those just starting out.
Published in 2019 the guide has outstanding, clear topos and up to date information for each of the crags in the Lakes. Some of the best climbs in the country reside here and there’s never been an easier way to find them. Plus, with Rockfax Digital, you only have to carry your phone up a multi-pitch mountain route to keep abreast of the description, rather than the whole guidebook.
This weekend it’s the Arc’teryx Academy: Climb Lake District. Be sure to check it out for climbing clinics, mountain running sessions, wild swimming and much more.
