The sun draws out walkers and mountaineers, sailors and cyclists, abseilers and zorbers, zipliners and those looking to sit quietly by a lake and take in the majestic beauty of it all.

For more adventure thrills, there’s Go-Ape in the Grizedale Forest and Whinlater, or a spot of go-karting.

When the sun shines in the Lake District, the outdoors is the place to be. We’re ready for you, whatever you want to do.
