About

On the western flanks of the Lake District, Ennerdale Water is the only road-free lake in the whole of the Lake District. Sitting in an area of woodland under the surrounding fells of the Ennerdale Valley, the lake offers visitors both solitude and beautiful scenery.
The mountains of Haycock, Steeple, and Pillar form an impressive rocky barrier to the east of the lake.
