Fix the Fells are a team of skilled and extremely dedicated rangers and volunteers. Their mission is to protect and reduce erosion in the Lake District; a UNESCO World Heritage Site and perhaps one of Britain's best-loved landscapes - a place worth protecting. Their invaluable work involves tackling the erosion problem head on by heading into the Lake District fells throughout the year, to repair and maintain 344 upland paths covering 410 miles (661km).

As part of Montane’s commitment to protecting our playgrounds and correcting our path, we are proud to support the tireless work of Fix the Fells volunteers and rangers. Keep reading to find out how and what you can do to support their cause.

By working together we’re helping to keep the Lake District a special place for future generations to enjoy.

Taking Action

It’s no secret that we here at Montane love exploring the mountains of the Lake District National Park in our spare time. So, it was a privilege for some of our Montane HQ team to join forces with Fix the Fells for a day of fixing paths on Helm Crag, Grasmere.
