Soon after 1918, we were gifted England’s highest mountain, Scafell Pike, and 13 other Lake District summits, including the iconic Great Gable, as war memorials to look after on behalf of the nation. These gifts were described at the time as the “world’s greatest war memorial.”
2018 marked 100 years since the end of the First World War. In the early years following the war, three very special gifts were made to the National Trust to look after on behalf of the nation.
A special 'leave no trace' arts project of a song cycle performed and recorded on the top of Great Gable and the other fells gifted by the Fell and Rock Climbing Club.
Help to look after the landscape, culture and wildlife of the Lakes, so people can find freedom, fresh air and the enriching experience of nature here forever.
