Wainwrights

Wainwrights are the 214 fells (hills and mountains) located within the English Lake District National Park, all described and illustrated in the seven pictorial guides written by Alfred Wainwright between 1955 and 1966. These fells, ranging in height and difficulty, have become iconic features of the Lake District landscape and are immensely popular with walkers.

Marilyns

Marilyns are hills in the British Isles that meet two criteria: a height of at least 150 metres (492 feet) and a topographic prominence of at least 150 metres (492 feet) relative to the surrounding terrain. This classification, popularized by Alan Dawson, focuses on hills that stand out independently rather than just being high points on a larger massif.

Majors

The term "Major" or "P600" refers to a classification of mountains in the British Isles that possess a topographic prominence of at least 600 metres (1,969 feet), regardless of their absolute height. This list, maintained by enthusiasts, highlights peaks that stand out significantly from their surroundings, emphasizing their independent stature rather than just their elevation.

Compiled by Alan Dawson, these hills are a popular target for hillwalkers and mountaineers looking for challenging and rewarding ascents across the British Isles.
