A very productive and fun couple of days were had recently by ERDF volunteer coordinator Rob and the Fix the Fells volunteers, working on the extremely popular Brown Tongue path.
Fixing the Lake District Fells
The Lake District is perhaps Britain’s best-loved landscape. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site – a place worth protecting. But erosion from people, coupled with severe weather events and climate change, is causing ugly scars and environmental damage in the fragile mountains. Fix the Fells tackles this erosion problem by repairing and maintaining 330 upland paths, helping to keep the Lake District a special place for us and for future generations.
If you love the Lake District, please help us to Fix the Fells.
We rely on your generous donations.

The People Fixing the Fells
Rangers
Four teams of highly skilled National Trust rangers work on the fells in all weathers. Our rangers are highly skilled and lead teams building sustainable paths and recreating a natural landscape.
Volunteers
Volunteers are a key part of Fix the Fells. We have around 100 volunteers who come from Cumbria and beyond, with one thing in common; they all love the Lake District fells!
