Lake District Walking Routes

The Lake District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is home to England’s highest peaks, including Scafell Pike. Its dramatic fells, glacial valleys, and mirror-like lakes have inspired poets and artists for centuries, from William Wordsworth to Beatrix Potter. Shaped by both ancient volcanic activity and glacial erosion, the region holds a unique place in British cultural and natural history.
