About Lank Rigg
Lank Rigg is a broad, rounded fell in the far west of the National Park, south of Ennerdale Water and above the upper Calder valley. Grike lies 2.2 km north and Crag Fell 2.5 km north. The ground is grass and moor, with few walkers and few paths.
Most people combine it with Crag Fell and Grike in a round from the Ennerdale Bridge side, crossing the moor south to Lank Rigg. The going is rough and pathless in places, so it pays to know how to use a compass.
On a clear day the summit looks out to the coast and back to the high western fells.
Lank Rigg is 541 m (1,775 ft) high with 110 m of prominence. It is in Lake District C&W, England. OS grid reference NY091119. It is the 27th highest of the 70 summits Peakify lists in Lake District C&W. The nearest summits are Grike (2.2 km), Crag Fell (2.5 km) and Swainson Knott (3.8 km).
