Whether it’s the soaring peaks of the Lake District, the county-straddling views of the Howgill Fells, or the rolling plains of Cheshire from its sandstone ridges, the views of the region are unrivalled.

Shining Tor and Shutingsloe (known as Cheshire’s Matterhorn) provide two of Cheshire’s best views, whilst Winter Hill and Pendle Hill in Lancashire (which is only 165 feet short of being classed as a mountain!) are equally awe-inspiring.

Woodhouse and Helsby Hills in Frodsham provide stunning views over the rich wildlife of the Mersey Estuary, with Helsby once described as the best view in the country.

As the region sits on the beautiful west coast a number of our high points are renowned for their amazing sunsets and views out to sea, including Arnside Knott, Morecambe and Pendle Hill looking west.
