Western Lakeland is a land of vivid and exciting contrasts, long sandy beaches
or rugged sea cliffs broken by estuaries and coves. Opportunities abound
for all sea sport from surfing to power boat racing, from kayaking to tall
ship regattas, from fishing to just having fun. The Lake District Hills
have their own distinct character, and the valleys of the Lake District:
Ennerdale, Eskdale, Wasdale and Dunnerdale. Wasdale is the home of England's
highest mountain Scafell Pike (3206 ft) and the deepest lake - Wastwater.
The Western Lake District is possibly Britain's area of most diverse interest.
If it can be done or it can be seen then it's likely to be here. There's the
opportunity for sporting activities to the extreme, to browse the local heritage,
indulge in a personal hobby or to relax and let the world go by amidst a variety
of spectacular and beautiful scenery.
Areas Included are Keswick, Workington. Whitehaven, Silloth, Maryport,
