Lake District

 

 

I always remember my very first mountain as a young lad that my parents took me up, the pyramid-shaped mountain, ‘Bowfell’. We had lunch at the summit in sub-zero conditions, in thick cloud, and as other fellow hikers passed, they turned round to me and said, “You’ll never forget this lad”. I never have.

The Lake District is the most visited national park in the United Kingdom, it’s no surprise with its outstanding beauty and wild landscapes. It has a lot to offer! The Lake District has hundreds of hikes/walks, ranging from gentle strolls to mountainous scrambles. There are also the famous Wainwrights by Alfred Wainwright, consisting of 214 fells that many try to accomplish on a yearly or lifetime basis (depending on how keen you are). Although I haven’t covered as many fell’s as I’d like to, the beauty of the Lakes is that the list is forever growing and there is always something new to discover.

Below you will find the hikes/walks have ratings of difficulty and contain mainly my own adventure stories, routes, GPX files and, photographs where I hope you too can discover your very own Lake District adventure.
