Top of the

Caption - From the top of the 'band' on Great End is this majestic view of Great Gable and its little brother Green Gable separated by Windy Gap. The Napes ridges high on the left flank of Gable are where the sport of rock climbing began in the 19th cent. with an ascent of Napes Needle (not visible at this distance).

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
