  1. The #LakeDistrict hill Whitbarrow (which means white hill) is a limestone plateau which looks like an escapee from the Yorkshire Dales. It is relatively little known and a way of escaping the crowded main fells & sometimes bad weather. See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/LakeD

  2. For you #LakeDistrict Wainwright conquerers, a pretty cool way of recording your progress in an easy, ornamental display on this Wainwright Fells 'Completed' Map. Put a red peg in as you complete each one. Make a good birthday/Christmas present maybe. See etsy.com/uk/listing/4411000359

  3. From the blog: We have always tended to visit the Lake District at Easter or during the summer. This was our first visit in October and the autumn colors did not disappoint. #lakedistrict #travel

  4. The Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel at Great Langdale now have a live streaming #LakeDistrict #webcam here odg.co.uk/webcam looking south over their car park towards Side Pike and Pike of Blisco.

    We've added it to our webcam page which you can find here walklakes.co.uk/webcams.html

  5. This #LakeDistrict walk follows a ridge to visit ‘The Dodds’: Stybarrow Dodd, Watson’s Dodd and Great Dodd. Also Clough Head, looking directly at Blencathra, across the valley. There is no climbing/scrambling or difficult terrain on this walk. See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/LakeD

  6. Scafell Pike in the #LakeDistrict and the highest peak in England is on most hikers’ bucket lists. This route from Wasdale Head is probably the shortest. Fabulous views. Please park responsibly & be properly equipped. Weather can change quickly! See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/LakeD

  7. From the blog: The Lake District National Park has been one of my happy places for a good number of years, here are some highlights from my recent visit. #lakedistrict #travel

  8. This easy walk on the quiet edge of the #LakeDistrict provides some great views including the Solway Firth & the Scottish hills beyond & a lesser seen view of Skiddaw. There is an ancient extensive earthwork to examine and an unusual statue. See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/LakeD

  9. On this day in 1974, Emily Redmund from Cumberland spoke to the BBC about fell-talk, a dialect spoken in the Lake District in northern England.

    The clip is from a BBC magazine television programme called Nationwide, originally broadcast 23 July 1974.

  10. Friday night plans...
    You: sofa, brew, telly.
    Our Dave: 105 miles round the Lakeland fells, 6,300m up, no sleep, 40hr cut-off.

    He calls the Montane Lakeland100 "like watching paint dry." Modest lad.

    Watch him live from Friday 6pm 👉 live.opentracking.co.uk/26lake 💪

  11. Never underestimate how much water you need on a hard climb especially in hot weather. In this case walkers had to be rescued after running out of water on Scafell Pike in the #LakeDistrict.

  12. We were reading, as we do, the most recent reports from the Wasdale Mountain Rescue Team and, despite this now being the summer, we noticed three recent incidents where walkers were caught out by the weather.

    You need to #BeAdventureSmart when walking on the #LakeDistrict fells.

  13. Place Fell above Patterdale in the #LakeDistrict is an under rated hill with stunning views, yet is relatively easy and with a lovely lakeside return section. See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/LakeD

  14. Wasdale residents say they're in a constant fight against fly-camping, litter and blocked roads, per the BBC.

    The likes of Malham and Burnsall aren't far behind.

    Love the Dales? Treat them properly: no trace, no fires, park with sense. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c932e3

  15. From the top of Loughrigg Fell, Grasmere, Lake District (UK) looking roughly SE.

    To say it's beautiful is doing it a disservice.

  16. We went to some places in the Lakes today before the children leave tomorrow. It was sunny but a lot cooler than the last few days.
