Around Keswick and the North Lakes
Skiddaw at 3053ft (931mtrs) is one of the most imposing sites around, overlooking Keswick to the North and offering various walking routes. Some are challenging, others offer the opportunity for the inexperienced fellwalker to tackle a mountain of over 3000ft. Other photos show some of the easier and more accessible sights to visit.
