One of the Lake District’s most well-known peaks under 3000 feet, the distinctive shape of Great Gable is a feature in many views. The summit is a wide plateau which rewards further exploration; be sure to visit the Westmorland cairn to the south-west for superb views of Wasdale. The summit of Great Gable is marked by a War Memorial commemorating members of the Fell and Rock Climbing Club. Every November, come rain or shine, a service of remembrance is held here.
