Lake District Activities

Here’s an easy riddle: where can you go gorge walking in the morning, sailing in the afternoon and mountain biking in the evening – and still find time to try some archery and some zorbing? The Lake District’s exhaustive menu of activities is long and diverse enough to satisfy every taste and interest, regardless of your appetite for adventure. So if a busy day means a gentle walk and a round of golf (with added mountain backdrop for maximum effect) or if your heart rate doesn’t get going unless you’re tackling a via ferrata or racing kayaks across a shimmering lake, the Lake District has you covered. The stunning landscape is the ideal terrain for every kind of outdoor pursuit. Why don’t you come and find out for yourself?
