The 214 Wainwrights
The Wainwrights are the 214 Lake District fells described by Alfred Wainwright in his seven Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells , published between 1955 and 1966. They run from Scafell Pike, England's highest mountain at 978 m, down to Castle Crag at just 290 m. Walking all of them is known as a round.
Here they are, book by book, highest first.
