Blake Fell reaches 573m (1,880ft) in the quiet group of fells between Loweswater and Ennerdale. Burnbank Fell lies 1.3km north and Gavel Fell 1.3km south-east, linked by grassy ridges. The slopes are smooth grass and heather, with forestry on the lower flanks above Loweswater. It is a Wainwright, Marilyn and Birkett.
Walkers climb it from Loweswater, through Holme Wood or up the lane to Waterend, and often make a round with Burnbank Fell and Carling Knott. From the west you can start at Cogra Moss near Lamplugh. The paths are grassy and clear in good weather.
