Did You Know?
- •Standing at just 141 metres, Hannah Moor is one of the lowest official fells in the Lake District. It's more of a gentle hill walk than a mountain climb, making it accessible for just about everyone, regardless of fitness.
- •Its location near St. Bees means it's one of the most westerly fells in the entire National Park. You're practically on the coast here, a stone's throw from the famous cliffs and the Irish Sea.
- •You won't find Hannah Moor in Wainwright's famous guidebooks; its modest height keeps it off the main fell-bagging lists. This makes it a perfect escape if you're looking for some peace and quiet away from the crowds.
- •While it's officially part of the Western Fells, a region known for giants like Scafell Pike and Great Gable, Hannah Moor is a much gentler soul. It offers a completely different, more pastoral experience of this rugged corner of the Lakes.
- •The walk up Hannah Moor is a short and sweet affair, a world away from the long, strenuous hikes elsewhere in the Lakes. It's the kind of place you can explore in an hour or two, leaving plenty of time for a trip to the beach afterwards.
