What to see and do in the Lake District
Designated a National Park in 1951, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2017, the Lake District spans some 2,362 square kilometres.
There are 16 large lakes, of which Windermere is the biggest (and most famous). Here, you can go swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding, or head out on a rowing boat.
The area has a long history, and you can visit everything from Roman ruins to Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top farmhouse.
Of course, given the Lake District is home to England’s tallest peak (Scafell Pike), you’ll almost certainly want to go hiking.
You can find all of the routes, which can be filtered by duration and accessibility, on the National Park Authority’s website.
