A typical Lakeland scene looking over Derwent Water to the Derwent Fells
| I have been visiting the Lake District for a number of years now and never
tire of it. I usually base myself in the excellent market town of Keswick as it
provides easy access to the Borrowdale valley where many of the great hills are
and it is also conveniently situated for many other Lakeland areas. Plus its got
great pubs with great beer, a necessary requisite after a hard days fell
walking. On this page you will find links to all the Lake district walks
featured on my site. And keep visiting, because its an ever growing list. I
recommend all the walks I feature and you can read about the highlights of each
walk on each walk page. Enjoy the Lakes pages and enjoy your walking. Follow my Wainwright's Lakeland Fells Challenge |
