Ill Crag

Encyclopedia : I : IL : ILL : Ill Crag


Ill Crag is a fell in the English Lake District. By some counts it is the fourth highest peak in England.

It forms part of the Scafell chain, and lies about 1 km east of Scafell Pike. Broad Crag lies immediately to the west, between Ill Crag and the Pike.

Ill Crag may be climbed en route to Scafell Pike, via a path from Esk Hause.

Ill Crag is one of very few fells in the lake District not to be given a separate chapter in Alfred Wainwright's celebrated guide books. It therefore does not qualify as a Wainwright, though it is a Hewitt.
