St Sunday Crag is a mountain in the eastern part of the English Lake District, near Helvellyn and Fairfield. It is a prominent figure in the Patterdale skyline, with a distinctive rounded shape. The fell has a long north east ridge which passes over the tops of Birks and Arnison Crag.
It is connected to the higher Fairfield by a long ridge, but is a Marilyn because the depression between the two is quite low (See topographic prominence).
The fell is usually ascended from Patterdale, a route which gives fantastic views of the nearby lake of Ullswater.
Saint Sunday is a local name for Saint Dominic, though it is not certain how this saint's name became attached to the fell.
