Lake District

Great place to go when you want to get out of the city. Nice country side scenery. Definitely recommend

Lake District in North West England is commonly referred to as Lakeland or The Lakes. This mountainous region has become one of the most famous holiday destinations in England, with its picturesque lakes, mountains and forests.Historically, Lake District is shared by three counties which are Lancashire, Westmorland, and Cumberland but now lies in the modern Cumbria country. The Lake District National Park now includes Scafell Pike which is England’s highest mountain. In addition, Lake District is also home to the longest and deepest lakes in England, Windermere and Wastwater respectively.Lake District National Park includes almost every part of Lake District even though Lakeland Peninsulas and Kendal town are not within the Park boundary. It is England’s most visited part with nearly 16 million visitors per year. It is the largest national park in Wales and England and UK’s second-largest park after the Cairngorms.Lake District was designated as a national park as a way of protecting the landscape through restriction of unwelcome changes through industry and commerce. However, a bigger part of the land in this national park is under private ownership with the main owners being United Utilities and National Trust. Just like other England national parks, there are no entry restrictions and visitors can move freely within the national park along the public routes. Visitors must however use the public footpaths while accessing cultivated land in the park.Lake District national park features an extensive footpath network that leads visitors to the fells and valleys and allows excellent access. Most tourists spend most of their time just walking by the lakes or on the fells. With more than two hundred fells easily accessed by visitors, you can bet there is so much to do and enjoy in the Lake District.* Photos courtesy of Internet. Thanks!

What a beautiful and peaceful place.The nature seems so untouched its amazing.Great for hikes alone or with dogs. The entire region is super dog friendly.

Lake District, one of my favourite places to escape to, we stay here a lot, magical ,have been here and seen it dressed in all the different seasons, beautiful xx

Magnificent views! And Beautiful nature! A good place to visit on holiday!

Amazing place , lovely walk along the lake

This place is unique. Such a spectacular views. I highly recommend if you are in this area to visit this big lake. Trip from the Newby Bridge till Ambleside takes around 4h and cost 61£ ( family ticket including parking).

It was a very good experience and a nice place to visit.

It was like amazing to see the view of that place.

Arguably England's most beautiful region, with crystal clear lakes, dramatic mountains, waterfalls, caves, breathtaking vistas and picturesque villages. Endless opportunities for walking, sightseeing and swimming.Scenic boat trips in the bigger lakes like Windermere, Derwentwater and Ullswater are a great way to see the views from the water. Roads are often narrow and steep, providing a challenge for enthusiastic drivers and cyclists.Internationally renowned and very popular, the most famous tourist destinations can get very busy in peak season, but you never have to go far to find tranquillity.Worth visiting in every season, be prepared for changeable weather.
