Those of you who have been following my Wainwrights in Colour project will know that over the past few years I have extensively covered all of the 214 Lakeland Fells listed by Alfred Wainwright on my walks as well as other locations in the Lake District. Many of those Lakeland routes have never been published but here is where to find them in the future. Details will include route maps and information about parking, refreshments etc. Of course it will take some time to upload the backlog of walks but hopefully you will find the wait worthwhile. The Lake District is sectioned off into seven regions as delineated by Wainwright in his Pictorial Guides. I have recently added the eighth region, that of the Outlying Fells. In the map below I have roughly followed his method to partition off this huge area into workable regions.
Direct links to each region: The Eastern Fells, The Far Eastern Fells, The Central Fells, The Southern Fells, The Northern Fells, The North Western Fells, The Western Fells and The Outlying Fells.

Andy Beck is the artist behind the unique Wainwrights in Colour project. A challenge to paint every single sketch from the seven Pictorial Guides to the Lake District as featured by Wainwright. This undertaking took ten years to complete and the resulting book won not only the TGO Magazine Outdoor Book of the Year but also the BBC Countryfile Magazine Book of the year.
