Crinkle Crags is a fell in the English Lake District in the county of Cumbria. It forms part of two major rings of mountains, surrounding the valleys of Great Langdale and Upper Eskdale. The name reflects the fell's physical appearance as its summit ridge is a series of five rises and depressions (crinkles) that are very distinctive from the valley floor. In Old English, cringol means twisted or wrinkled.

The United Kingdom is one of the best locations for wind power in the world and is considered to be the best in Europe. By the beginning of March 2022, the UK had 11,091 wind turbines with a total installed capacity of over 24.6 gigawatts (GW): 14.1 GW of onshore capacity and 10.4 GW of offshore capacity, the sixth largest capacity of any country in 2019. Wind power contributed 24.8% of UK electricity supplied in 2020, having surpassed coal in 2016 and nuclear in 2018. It is the largest source of renewable electricity in the UK. The UK Government has committed to a major expansion of offshore capacity by 2030.
Muncaster Fell is a fell at the far western edge of the Lake District National Park, in Cumbria, England. Muncaster Fell is a long, narrow ridge of land, approximately 1.2 km wide and 6 km long, lying between the River Mite to the north, and River Esk to the south. The fell rises from the coast near Ravenglass village to its highest point at Hooker Crag (231 m). The ridge then continues to the north-east, dropping gently to its furthest prominence at Silver Knott (174 m). The fell then falls away rapidly to the village of Eskdale Green at its north-eastern tip.
Wind power in Scotland is the fastest-growing renewable energy technology, with 9,347 MW of installed wind power capacity as of June 2020. This included 8,366 MW from onshore wind in Scotland and 981 MW of offshore wind generators.

Lochcraig Head is a hill in the Moffat Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. The second highest in the range, its southern slopes drop dramatically into Loch Skeen, the highest loch in the Southern Uplands, from which the Grey Mare's Tail waterfall originates. A common ascent is as a round from the car park to the south, taking in White Coomb.
Cramalt Craig is a hill in the Manor Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. The second highest in the range and third highest in southern Scotland, it was previously also a Corbett until a 2013 survey by Alan Dawson found the col between it and Broad Law to be a few metres short of 500 ft. It is climbed almost solely from its southern sides at the Megget Stane or Cramalt Farm, taking in the neighbouring hills.
Wind Fell is a hill in the Ettrick Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. The Dumfries and Galloway-Scottish Borders border lies across the hill.

Whitehope Heights is a hill in the Moffat Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. The lowest Donald hill in the range, it is separated from Hart Fell by a steep grassy cleuch known as The Gyle. Like its neighbour, the Dumfries and Galloway-Scottish Borders border runs along its summit. The southern slopes of the hill are part of the Corehead hill farm, an area owned by the Borders Forest Trust for the purposes of habitat regeneration; as a result, a large deer fence lines the boundary. East of the Devil's Beef Tub and Annandale Way, it is most frequently climbed from this direction, but ascents from Hart Fell are also common.
Bowbeat Hill is a hill in the Moorfoot Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. It lends its name to Bowbeat Onshore Wind Farm built on the hill and commissioned in 2003. The wind farm produces 31.2MW of power using 24 turbines. It is commonly ascended with its neighbouring hills from Gladhouse Reservoir to the north.
Hudderstone is a hill in the Culter Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. Normally ascended as part of a popular round, its southern flanks are dotted with turbines from the Clyde Extension Wind Farm.
Whitehope Law is a hill in the Moorfoot Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland. A relatively isolated hill, it is frequently climbed on its own from the B709 road to its south and east. A farm to the south lends its name to the hill.
The Rhinns of Kells are a range of hills in the Galloway Hills range, part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland.
