Crag Hill is a mountain in the North Western part of the English Lake District.

It is the second highest fell in the area of high ground between the passes of Whinlatter and Newlands, second to Grasmoor.

The North Western Fells occupy the area between the rivers Derwent and Cocker, a broadly oval swathe of hilly country, elongated on a north–south axis.

To the north of Crag Hill is the col of Coledale Hause, the high level connection to Hopegill Head, focal point of a parallel but slightly lower ridge.

The Causey Pike Fault runs across the southern flanks of the fell, beyond which are the rocks of the Buttermere Formation.

[1] Although there is much evidence of mining activity in the surrounding fells, Crag Hill itself has remained untouched.

[3][4] From the shore of Crummock Water, Rannerdale Beck can be followed to its source, gaining the ridge between Crag Hill and Wandope.

[3] Many ascents of Crag Hill are made indirectly as part of a full traverse of the Grasmoor to Causey Pike ridge.
