Learn to Navigate in the Lake District
Mountain navigation is an often-overlooked skill. Confident navigation by map and compass is a skill that will prove essential at some point in any fell walker's time on the hill.
GPS navigation aids use batteries, and are often rendered unusable in extreme conditions. We will teach you the skills necessary to navigate yourself to where you want to be, whether it is the top of a mountain, back to your tent or the local pub!
