High Rigg has an excellent view of Blencathra

Caption - From the summit cairn of High Rigg there are excellent views of Blencathra's southern face with its ridges clearly defined. From the summit cairn a short but steep grassy path leads to the Youth Centre and St Johns Church. The route back to the Legburthwaite takes the bridleway just beyond the churchyard.

Lake District

Walking in the Lake District National Park is amongst the best in the British Isles. The natural beauty has attracted many artists and writers through the centuries and today the same scenery provides the perfect backdrop to a wide variety of walks. The National Park is located wholly within Cumbria with Windermere, Ambleside and Keswick the main tourist towns. For many this is the finest area in England for walking with a wide variety of scenery. Even on the busiest weekends it is possible to get away from the crowds by carefully selecting one of the less-visited fells. More Information
