Causey Pike reaches 637 m (2,090 ft) at the eastern end of the ridge that runs west from Newlands towards Crag Hill. You can pick out its humped top from Keswick and Derwentwater. It is a Wainwright, Hewitt, Nuttall and Birkett, with 40 m of prominence, and Scar Crags, the nearest higher top, is 1.0 km to the west.
The usual ascent starts near Stair in the Newlands valley and climbs the steep shoulder of Rowling End before following the ridge west. The last section below the summit is a short rocky step where you need your hands. From the top, the ridge carries on over Scar Crags and Sail towards Crag Hill, so you can make a long round with the Coledale fells.
The ridge is grassy and well defined, with steep slopes on the Rigg Beck side. The summit has several small knolls and looks over Derwentwater and the length of Newlands.
