caption_attribution_description: English: Carrock Fell from the north, English Lake District
context_page_description: Carrock Fell is a fell in the English Lake District, situated in the northern region of the national park, 8 miles north-east of Keswick. The fell's name means "Rock Fell", from the Cumbric carrec, meaning a rock, and Old Norse fjall, meaning a fell.
context_section_description: Despite all its other attractions, Carrock Fell is primarily the haunt of the fell walker; it is mostly climbed from the surfaced road which goes to the site of the Carrock Mine. It is possible to leave a car at NY328326and then climb the fell by the steep south-west slopes. Carrock Fell can also be climbed from the road between Mungrisedale and Hesket Newmarket, threading a way through the craggy and bouldery eastern slopes known as "Apronful of Stones".
